Default Brakes and wheels

Its about time for me to get new brakes but the people that put my new tires on stripped out two of my lugs out but they got one of them on and they told me that when somebody takes the wheel off it may be hard for them to take it off....What will they have to do when they take it off??? And will I have to buy new lugs or anything other then the brakes??

They'll just break the lug bolt off and install a new one. It's a very simple process and you can find vids on the net, but it's a pain that you have to deal with it. Happened to me a few times while getting the tires rotated.

That's why if I can do something myself I always do it. I'd say I do about 90% of the work done on my truck... Even though they are "licensed", some of them are lazy and use stupid shortcuts resulting in stupid things like this happening. Hope you get it repaired with the smallest headache possible. Goodluck
