I had a set of gorilla lug nuts on my ride for a while now and decide to swap out my rims for some blackies. I get to my passenger side front tire and one lug nut just refused to come off - it stop, and just won't go anymore , so I forced it off and the stud spun- which means I have to replace it now - so I get out the dermel and cut the nut off along w/ part of the stud - Anyway I get to the other side and same issue - except that I haven't yet broke the stud - but I know if I push the it, it's going to do the same thing - i'm trying to avoid taht , anyone have any ideas - I was going to wd-40 it up and then try - I'll be doing this sometime today but will wait to see if anyone has an idea.

ive never had ny problems with my gorilla nuts ... you probably stripped it when you were putting it on initially

If the stud was spinning in the hub, then you need a new HUB too, not just a new stud.

use an impact wrench, that should work.... Also, you should get a new hub... but i've just replaced the studs without a problem, the new ones are usually a little bigger.

Right on peoples - yeah if I have to replace the hub then shall be it.
Thank god my pops owns a shop ha, we did the wd-40 thing and that seems to work - funny how lub can almost be your best friend in a lot of situations -
I think i'll just go w/ an upgraded aem kit I was looking into getting, my bro has them on his teggy but seems to go thru pads like a females go thru pads.
