Default Stubborn Lugnut question....

I have two lugnuts that just won't loosen with the tool. They are about half way off right now and they are just stuck. I have no idea how to get these off. Any help out there?

you are gonna have to go back and forth until they snap off. then you are gonna need some new wheel studs.

Try to turn then back in slowly and then back out. They should come loose. If you have access to a torch, try to heat them up. Chances are, the struds or lugnuts are stripped.

Im pretty sure the lugnuts are stripped, luckily Im putting new ones on, but I will try turning it back and forth and pushing the wheel in.
