Any cure for rusty rear wheel lug bolts?

They are getting to be really tough to remove - back wheels only. Car is a 2005 with 48k on it

If the rear wheels don't spin while in air does that mean my 43mm bolts are too long?...

When removing a wheel, is it bad to loosen the lug bolts before jacking up the car?
