Default hub issues, need help ASAP

ok so i tried to install my extended studs by taking off the hub, but when i tried to get the hub off with a slide hammer, the damn thing wouldnt budge. not even a little bit. so i gave up and put everything back together and i noticed the hub/rotor had a little play. it wobbles but just barely. i figure the wheel bearing is fucked so im taking it into a shop. i dont need comments on trying to DIY this i already know.

what i need to know is if i can drive it to the nearest shop to get it fixed. (probably around 10-15 miles) is it safe or will i **** it up worse?

again i dont not need flames on DIYing this.

why don't you just take it off, and take it to the shop. it will be alot cheaper, you will only have to pay for pressing in and out. and you can have them press the studs out too and press new ones in.

I don't know about the drive it depends how bad it is.
