i was goin down the road and 4 of my studs snapped off on the driver rim and theres one left i tried to take it off but somone put the wrong size stud in it so when i turn the lug it just spins the stud, ive tried everything to break the stud off, the lug is inside the rim so i can cut it off,

anyone have any ideas or that has had this problem before

What is this on? can you put a pair of vice grips on the lugnut, and drill the back of the stud off?

I had it happen once and had to torch it off

i had one that had to be driven around a parking lot until wheel finally snapped it off.


didnt have access to torch and it was a had to fix it now deal
lug studs drill out very easy if its not a solid chrome lug nut

Not too bad of an idea, i know i've done that for wheels that are super duper seized onto the hubs, accelerate quickly, then jam the brakes

i tried to drive around for awhile but it blew my messed up my brake caliper and didnt come off, and i kept breaking drill bits

if your breaking drill bits use bigger bits lug studs are suprisingly soft
