Normally they are not rusted but the tension is doing it's job. often as soon as the preasure is release the bolts spin out cleanly ( so if you cut the heads off they usualy come out ok)

Anyway.

1) Dig out all the crud from the torx socket to increase the drive surface and reduce the chance of slipage.

2) Get a impact driver and with a 5LB lump hammer, give each bolt head a got 20 whacks.

3) Use a breaker bar ( not a normal wrench ) and apply gentle pressure. Do not shock load.
