Default Options for broken front lug

Picked up a 91 Integra hatchback to replace my worn out 89 and looks like it's going to work out well. One issue is a broken lug on the front. I understand that replacing that $2 lug will cost me a wheel bearing and a lot of work, so are there other options? My lug nut will catch about one thread on the broken lug and it's threads are good. BTW, I replaced the stock steel wheels with 89 Integra alloy wheels. Are there any nuts that are tapered down to reach down through the wheel and catch more threads? Also, looks are not important as these wheels have plastic hub covers. Ideas anyone???

Thanks,
Dave
