recieved new lug nuts yesterday, black and very light..
when removing wheel locks, there was good portion of key slot left on wheel key, so i cut it in half and started to remove wheel nuts,everything came out good except the rear one..
now i broke 1 stud out of 4..thank you very much canadian tire..
is it really dangerous to drive only 3 studs??
how hard is it to replace broken stud??

Crappy Trash has them. Pretty much any auto parts store should have them.

yea this is like the most common issue with the studs mounted in the drums... use a little bit of JB cold weld to hold the stud in tight now that the hole has been stripped

I dunno where to source that socket in your area,,, I would look in a industrial supply store here called checker industrial or car quest usually carries impact large format sockets...
