Two methods I've used: 1.) grind some flats into the side of the nut, grip with a vise; 2.) completely grind off the lip of the nut. Both require removing the cranks and a dremel with a grinding or cutoff wheel. BTW lube the new bolts liberally before installing to prevent a huge PITA in the future.
