[QUOTE="traineefarmer, post: 6706485, member: 89974"] Sacrifice the alloy wheel is the best and safest way to go with this. You'll find one at a scrappy or ebay for less than £50. Using heat or excessive force on the stud or other nuts could weaken them and lead to a dangerous failure. Get a wheel in hand and the use a blind hole saw to cut round the broken nut, then you can remove the rest of the wheel and turn the remaining piece of wheel with the broken nut using a stillson or similar wrench. Locking wheel nuts on cars more than 5 years old is ridiculous. I've just bought a 13 year old XC90 and high on my list of thing to do are bin the locking wheel nuts. [/QUOTE]
