I believe you have to use an impact gun to get it off.

I've broken 7 wheel studs in a year.. so good luck its gone and you'll have to buy new lug nuts too.

I usually just say the hell with it and get a big breaker bar and pull up and down until it snaps. Eventually the metal will heat up and pop

put the pipe on the end of the Breakerbar. :) It's best to use a Impact Gun, but if it's all you got
