Super Torqued or Cross threaded Lug bolts by dealer.

Today I tried to finally swap back to my M sport wheels that I painted black. Unfortunately, my lug bolts were torqued to hell! One wheel off came off super easy but the other three would not budge. I was going at them with a DeWalt impact gun on every torque setting and speed it had. I WD-40ed the hell out of the bolts and heat cycled them with a blow torch and still could not get them off. Used a breaker bar and literally broke the breaker bar.

My local dealer, BMW Sarasota have been the only ones to touch the wheels since the factory.

I will be calling BMW Sarasota tomorrow to see what they say...Any other advice on what I should do? Thank you in advance!

Please excuse the monster truck wheel gap, the suspension had not settled since I jacked it up.
