I think it would be easier if you just bought a new set

Start grabing all sorts of tools and **** an get em off ur self. when i got my car back after being stolen it had a wheel locks on it and i grabbed some vice grips and clamped them and then used another pair of pliers to tighten the vice grips. came off in a jiffy. just do it urself and the buy a new set.
