if you dont want to buy a tool like that there is a set that you can get at advance auto or a place like that were its like a 6 star almost like an allen key only big!! if you want most of the time this works i know a few people that had that problem. what they did was put the one that is closest to fitting but it has to be a little bigger!! you HAMMER it in to the lugnut as much as you can it will forge a grip point in which the tool will be able to grip into the metal. well just turn the tool and it should come off!! Make sure you hammer it in there pretty good though
