How did I get a bad wheel stud with my moser??

Somehow one of my wheel studs isnt right on my Moser 12 bolt. I was just about to put the last lug on today and it will not go on. The stud isnt too big or small etc, it looks like the pitch or angle of the threads isnt right. Instead of angling up like any other normal stud, bolt etc the threads go straight across. I checked the back of all the studs and they are all the same number???

Any ideas on what I should do? I guess I could try threading it on my self with a rachet or air tools but I dont want to f' it up. I know I cant run on 4 lugs but I dont want to have to take that axle out just to replace the stud....

Anyone have an idea?

Tough without seeing it. Did you try a different nut? You could get the appropriate size die to clean up the threads. Other than that, the axle will have to come out
