Grab them really tightly with some vice grips and try to spin them out, dremel a line on the head for a flathead, or just plain grind the head off and grab the stump that's left with the vice grips.

Just incase you come across another stripped bolt pick up a set of craftsman stripped nut removers...Sears has em'
They work great!
Good luck

Oooh, I did that. I grabbed mine with pliers or smacked something bigger in than was meant to, then I went to the hardware store with the dizzy to find a replacement, good luck. You can prolly drill it out, also.

maybe cut the rotor so you can get to the bolt with a vise grips. or you could dry drill it out make sure you go straight you don't want to strip those threads.
