So basically this tire is rusted on and will not come off so I busted out the trusty sledge hammer and started walking. My aim clearly isn’t the best because I smacked two wheel studs in. So now the wheel is still stuck on and there are two wheel studs stuck inside. Not sure if I am gonna be able to drive like this with the studs loose inside of the assembly. I live right down the road from the shop. Please help a brother out here I feel stupid as hell

    First jack it up and spin the wheel to make sure those studs don’t interfere with anything. Then put it back on the ground, loosen the remaining nuts two or three turns. drive slowly round in circles until you notice it has broken free. Do the nuts back up as soon as it comes loose, drive home and finish the job.
