At least with your wheels, you have some room to work as opposed to trying to get one off with a phone dial wheel.

I second this. I have done it many times. Try to use a 1/2 in or larger drive socket as you will need the larger opening to drive the nut back out of the socket. Also on the rare occasion I have had to purchase a new socket as getting the nut was just not an option and time is $$ and a replacement socket is cheap.
