Whats up guys well I got a flat the other day and went to remove all the lugs and got to the last one and the damn thing was so tight on there that I ended up being a dumbass and stripped it really bad.. It was a 21mm now I can geta 20 mm on there easily what should i do? I went to the store to get oneof those sockets for the stripped bolts but all they went up to was 19mm.. So I tried just cutting a little notchin the lug and stuck a screwdriver in there and beat it with a hammer mopeing it would come loose but no luck..Should i just take it to a wheel shop? or do you all have any secret methods..thanks in advance for any help

hammer on a smaller socket and impact it off, then replace

air hammer w/ chisel accessory ftw. you can also burn them off with an acetelyne torch but you sometimes damage the rim that way. if you have access to a welder, you could try to weld a nut on and turn it off with that. if you dont have access to any of that, i guess you could use a hammer and chisel and try to notch into the lugnut and hit it the way you need to to turn it off.

those things are fuckin worthless...if you have one just junk it.

wow all you have to do is get a pair of vice grips clamp it down on the socket so it's tight take a rubber mallet or small hammer and hit it in the direction to loosen it........after it loosens some you should be able to just turn it socket...

torch it.

If you can get a 20mm on there easily, then get yourself a 12 point 19mm socket and hammer it onto the lugnut. Then take a socket wrench and remove it. I used this method many times before...
