they suck!! you have to get a wire brush on a drill bit and get all the rust off the threads before you start loosening them.  Just work the nut back and forth and keep spraying rust eater or something.  They will come off if you use this method and can be reused.

And you should be able to hold the stud from turning with a Hex key in the end, clean out the hole, get a GOOD quality metric hex key of the correct size, may have to tap it in if the hole is really rusty...

And as a last resort, get a Dremel with a cutoff wheel, (and safety glasses)
