Re: So, Dont buy a VW
This might be one of the dumbest things i've ever seen on here. You seriously got beat so bad by a lug bolt that you had to cut your wheel apart? Thats great.
Cliffs: don't buy shitty locking lug bolts?

*welded extention to lug* ( I could only do half of it because There wasnt any room to ge to the bottom, that broke)
*easy out* Didnt really work since drill bits are brass
The lug tool that they are talking about... yup... That didnt fit inside the hole because it was way to small. As you can tell in the 1st pic
Drilling may have work had the tap not been titanium.

Are you that retarded? EZ outs go on the INSIDE of the bolt. You drill a hole through the center. If the hole is large enough, it'll relieve pressure exerted from the bolt into the threads, then you put the EZ out in a drill, set the drill to reverse, and drive it into the hole you just drilled. EZ out goes in, bolt unscrews itself.
Also, you keep mentioning that you have lug bolts instead of studs as if we didn't already know that. Volvo, BMW, Mercedes, VW, Audi, and most other European cars use bolts instead of lugs; we already know that, it's nothing new to us.
