Here's some useful info. Sorry I do this far a living and you kind walked right into it. Get ur self a 1/2" drive chrome thin wall socket in the size you need along with a 24" ratchet or breaker bar but a ratchet is a lot easier. You might have to tap the socket on the lugnut but that's ok as long as it's all the way on. Break it over with ur bar and get it all the way off. Getting the nut out of the socket is the easiest, just drop the socket on the ground or throw it if it's tough but maybe with a couple of try's it will put right out.

It a thin wall is still to thick then you may have to take it to a bench grinder and little by little grind it down just to where it fits and no further or else it might break.

Good luck bud
