Just don't try this on real magnesium wheels.

Re: Tricks for removing lug nuts
ANFO is easy to make but makes a poor fire starter. It also has the
downside that it is easier to set off crappy home made explosives than
stuff designed for warheads and such. Some odd prejudice for not
blowing the thing up when it gets the nudge from whatever is launching
or shooting it. Thermit has the downside that you end up with all that
liquid iron drizzling around and welding things together. Plus it might
be hot enough to ignite an aluminum wheel or at best damage it.
