As I said, I hadn't seen the specific arrangement. However the same basic principle would apply, doing ONLY the necessary to free the wheel, with minimal collateral damage, then doing a proper job later.

That might involve drilling out both sides, ie. decapitate one side, and/or pilot drill and fracture the other, or otherwise, but in a way that expensive parts are minimally damaged.

Should the OP provide photos of both sides, I might be able to offer more specific advice, but see no point in arguing otherwise.

BTW- I must have missed your post offering constructive ideas.
