Thanks guys for all the suggestions, I really appreciate all the great advice!

By some miracle I was able to get it off by removing the other 4 lugs and using the wheel to apply pressure against the back side of the nut while manually wrenching on the nut to catch some new threads.

It has been a long day, this was the last of three lug nuts that got cross threaded. Thankfully all the bad studs are in wheel adapters and won't be re-used.

New wheels are on and I'm ready for Goodguys Pleasanton tomorrow!
