Has to be drilled out at at shop if they cant get it loose some other way. You sure your not looking at the lug covers? Because...we have lug covers for our lug nuts.

Well ;
What you could do is go to Sears , they have something to use to take off rounded nuts . it come in a 4 or 6 socket set , i dont know what thire called but in seen them in the stores . there especially made to take off rounded nuts.
