Default Lugs damaged..help
i have a coupe of my lugs where the threads are damaged. id hate to have to take the rotor all apart just to replace 1 lug. is there a tool that would fix the thread on the lug?

You can try and run a tap over it, and it may help a little bit. Thread size should be 12mm x 1.5
