I think some people are not understanding you here...
The bolt has broken inside his rim, your rim cannot come out right? Because all the thread are munched up. That last bolt is holding the rims to the hub. The only way now is to drill it out, be careful not damaging the rim, if you damage the stud, you can still roll on 4 studs until you can get it fixed. I would suggest getting new bolts too...you dont want that to happen again. A guy changing tire here told me he seen those types of bolt break often..the metal is so thin on the outside, just a little overtorquing is enough to break them.
