Hey guys, whats up, im having a really tough time with the lug nuts on my car. My car hasnt been driven in some time, and now, because of its non-use, the inverted lug nuts its had on it have decided to rust to a point where even when you put the lug key into the lug, the lug seems to have gotten soft from the rust. basically the lugs dont want to come off...

im in NJ...i need help, pretty badly, can anyone help?

the wheel is an 18x7.5, and so the lugs are set deep into the wheel center itself, which puts such things as vice grips out of the equation...dont know what to do and i am desperate...any help is good help...thanks people!

 

try soaking the lugs in this first ...


PB Blaster works wonders on rusted parts.

I have NO idea how this product will react to alloy metal though, so try it on 1 wheel to see the effects. I doubt anything will happen, but just a heads up.

 

where can i buy the stuff from? like a local auto parts store?

 

Even WD40 works well. Whatever you use, soak it good and let it sit for a while. Tap (not hammer) them on the end before trying to wrench them off, it might help to unstick them too. Just be careful not to mess up the lug.
