I've never used dry ice to get stuck bolts out, but I have used a torch. Just get the bolt and the hub right around the bolt hot and see if that does it. Blue99's idea of using wax on the threads is interesting, I've never heard of that. Maybe you can find a money scented candle for the wax, the car will probably like that scent the best.

If you get it out successfully, make sure to chase the threads in the hub with a tap, and use a new bolt.

Good luck!
