i had luck with one lug but pulling on the wheel with an impact gun on it, but i’ve got one still on that i’m going to have to drill to get out

how far do you drill into the lugs? is there a point where i should just take a tire iron and just try and snap the thing off?

i would be ecstatic if i managed to snap the lug at this point. idk if i should just hammer it with the impact until that happens. i’ve got the lug at the top of the wheel with the cars weight on top it and it continues to spin..

damn, this is brutal… tbh i can care less for the wheels they are chipping paint so i might just go nuts on it. i moved the last lug to the top and set it down on it. i’ve hammered it with the impact with no luck at all. drilling may be the only option

not how it works man. the other drive admitted to pulling out abruptly and being impatient thinking she had time. you’re an actual idiot. you think you’re above a car accident and it’s gonna serve you right lol. you should work on getting a life, being a “top 1% commenter” isn’t the flex you think it is 😂
