So this morning I woke up to a flat tire. Thought, no prob, I'll get the spare on in 5 minutes. WRONG. The lock lug appears to be halfway stripped so I can't apply full force to turn the thing without the key socket losing its grip, eating away at the lock lug every time I try. The rest of the lugs were also hell to break loose but I got them.
Whoever were the boneheads that over-torqued the lugs need to be thrown into an airplane engine.
I have already tried using propane to heat up the lug, penetrating oil, and hammering the key socket onto the lock lug.
What are my next options?
