Can't get lug nuts off

[spacepirate]

Hey guys,

I can't get 3 off my front lug nuts off because they are stripped. I've tried the gorilla grip socket but can't get it deep enough on the lug to get a grip. I just sprayed some WD-40 on them and gonna let them soak but I'm open to any help or tips!

Is the nut spinning on the lug or is the lug spinning in the hub?

The outside of the nut is rounded off but I just purchased a nut removal kit from Pep Boys. Going to try it in the morning and hope that it does the trick.

Sometimes you can pound a smaller socket into the nut. We use to use this to remove "locking" lug nuts that were missing the key.

Yeah I tried that and will again but with more love if the special tool doesn't work.

That sucks, tuner nuts? These aren't on your new wheels are they?
