to start the day off i had finals for college which i wasnt too happy about, when i got home i decided to switch to my winter tires and rims, while switching one of my lugs snapped off (driver side rear wheel). It managed to snap off just enough so the lug nut wont grab the thread. Does anyone know what i could do about that? Also i found out that someone hit my passenger side corner of my bumper, its got scrapes leading up to the headlight (which is cracked) and a minor scratch above the headlight. WTF!!!!

that is a bad day. have you tryed pounding a socket over the lug nut to remove it that way?

i meant the actual threaded lug snapped off, kind of like going from a 5 lug to a 4 lug

He's not missing the key to a locking lug nut, he snapped the stud off. You have to take everything off and pound it out. May even need to heat it up a bit. Hopefully someone has done this before or recently and can detail the necesary steps. Otherwise, just roll with 4 lugs. [8D]

i know i can hold a wheel on that, it just pissed me off when it snapped, today i had my bio final that was on like 13 chapters and i was looking at some of that questions like did we even go over this stuff lol

O s hit, that sux! check out the search. I did have that problem with my first car (yes it was a honda) and newb2000GT is right. the new one you tap in and when you snug your nut up it will seat it's self. at least on a honda.

does anyone know where i can get a new lug stud then? I thought i would be spending like half my bank account for fixing this problem lol

usually with things like this it dosent get done right away, so its probably gonna be awhile cause im pretty lazy lol unless im motivated, like swapping the tires today cause its gonna snow soon lol
