if all else fails just snap the one stud off and use 1 less lugnut or replace it with a new stud

:lol:

I drilled the stud when I had to get a locking lug off that I had no key for.

find a stripped nut extractor socket. Its a hardened material with teeth on the inside.  
Many good mechanic shops will have these tools available. Harbor Freight might have something cheap.

My dad has used these, says they work pretty well.
