Crank Pulley Bolts

I am trying to pull my crank pulley on a 2004 V40. The bolts are stuck on good, just in case are they reverse thread? I was thinking an impact driver to crack them loose-any advice?

dunno if its reverse threaded but I do know that for old Audi's it was common to use a breaker bar with a six point impact socket and a very long (like 4/5 feet) cast iron pipe to get enough leverage...

My 2001 V40 is not reverse threaded and I used an impact for the 4 smaller bolts and the 1 large center nut. Center nut was a little stubborn but came off.
