I'm thinking he cant get the wheel off. If thats the case. Get a sledge hammer and beat on the "tire not rim/wheel" from the backside. Rotate the wheel and keep smacking it.

Well I drilled, burned, pounded and after 3 days I got it off. I swear these lugnuts/studs are made of something other then steel.

The truck had been sitting for over a year, so the torches are going to come in handy when i start to replace stuff

Thanks for the ideas

So, what does that have to do with the lugnut?
