Was this a local place? I used to get tires on my cars at costco but after they broke off lug nuts the first two times I used them I stopped. They, or at least my store do not replace them. I was referred to a tire shop who replaced them free of charge with the costco voucher to repair, but had to make an appointment which took two days and then they kept the car all day. Now I get all my tires, auto, truck and 5th wheel at America's Tire (Discount Tire in some parts of the country, same company) have not had any broken lugs since. BTW with regards to yours...small chisel to cut the rest of the lug away.

Question is, are those tapered lug nuts or flat lug nuts if they’re tapered, it’s gonna go down into the aluminum rim's

</blockquote>Exactly....I worked on 1 of the 3 nuts today. Used sockets,extractors,chisel,grinder with cobalt bit.... There is no way this is coming off without messing up the wheel. I'm going to need to get to it from the back.<br />
<br />
Here is my plan so far:<br />
<br />
Remove the two bolts holding on the caliper.<br />
<br />
Remove the axle.<br />
<br />
Remove the clip. Holding the key way.<br />
<br />
Remove the keyway and hub nut.<br />
<br />
Remove the outer bearings.<br />
<br />
Lastly, remove the break line to the caliper so the caliper will stay on the rotor.<br />
<br />
From here it looks like I should ( in Theory) be able to remove the entire thing in one shot. It's going to be heavy but it should work..<br />
<br />
Grind the stud shoulder off from the back and push them through to the front. This will free up the wheel for me to install new studs.<br />
<br />
Then just put everything back together, and bleed the breaks.</div>
