sj your bits are probably either dull or not the right tip, go to carquest or napa or ace hardware, tell them what your doing and you need the best bit they got to drill tempered steel with get you a couple of 1/8ths to get a pilot hole going then get one that is the right size to just take the head off the bolt without getting into the hub what you will do then is center the 1/8th and i mean in the exact center of the bolt drill a pilot hole down you dont have to go far that allen head is only about 1/4 inch or so high, after you get the pilot hole drilled go back with the bigger bit, when you get to where the bolt shank meets the allen head part of the bolt do the next and so on for all 6, then the locking hub will come off and there should be still enough bolt shank left to get ahold of with vise grips [ good ones] and unscrew the old bolt , the other alternative is to get the 1/8th hole drilled and get a ezy out extracter, the screw type seems to me to hold better than the strait type use the eaz out to remove the bolt, one word of warning on these 1/8 inch is a pretty small diameter, if you bust that eaz out in the hole you have compounded your problem 10 fold those things are hard, and i mean hard tempered tool steel they do not drill out easy if it works you will save yourself several hours work unless some idiot put jb weld or locktight on those hub cover bolts when he put them in they shouldnt be all that tight
