lug nuts

[TwistedDreams]

ok so im taking my rims off, rear driver side and I get 3 lugs off and then 2 crack how in the hell can I get it off? Its a piece of shit tuner lug nut.

[jackal2000]

which way did it crack? across the threads or with the threads?

[TwistedDreams]

it didnt crack the tread it cracked it just enough for the allen wrench not to be able to grip the inside of the lug nut

[jackal2000]

They cracked and when you go to remove it it spreads apart and slips. Not cool. Is there any way you can support it to stay together. See if you can get a stud remover that pounds on with a taper to it. You can try to split it. If it's just stripped pound a bigger allen key into it.

tomorrow im just gonna drill both studs out

[acold7dusta]

may i ask why u bought those in the first place

[strtrydr]

Just go get a stripped screw remover...the threads are backwards and you can pound the bastard in until it stops and then just turn it lose!

I got to auto zone to see there opions on it and they say "your screwed" what a fckin snafu

Does the wheel lug area have room for it? If not might can buy a couple of sockets and jam them on the lug.

[TwistedDreams]

those fit on the outside of the lug the lugs I have need an allen key which fits on the insde of the lug nut...

I would suggest trying to weld a bolt on...
