Wondering if I can drive with 4 of 5 lug nuts on temporarily since I just broke off a stud. Whoever put on my wheels last, cross-threaded one of the lug nut and in my attempt to remove the lug-nut, I broke off the stud. How "smart" would it be to drive with 4 of 5 lugs nuts on ? Thanks!!!

 

It should be ok for temporary use.

 

sure you can theres on prob


BTW Mustangs only came with 4 lugs for a while so you should be fine right

 

NO!

Don't go on the freeway like that, why the hell would you do that anyways, there like $0.89 a peice from AutoZone for the studs/nuts, you can get locks for like $9.00 there.

 

You'll be fine so long as
A:The other 4 are properly torqued
B:You don't do anything crazy
C:It's only temporary having 1 less lug nut just increases the pressure put on the others

 

The hobbystock guys around here are so broke they sometimes go with 3 lug nuts, ON A DIRT CIRCLE TRACK!!!

"risk your life" RACING!!!
