wheel safe to drive on?
I was just taking my wheel off to check my brakes and rotars and when I was turning the lug nuts they broke off with the stud inside of it. how can i fix this? I'm hopen' that i wll just be able to buy one pice to fix it?
i'v only got two lug nuts screwd on and two that i cant because i broke off the studs, should it be safe to dive with the tire like that untill i get it fixed?

Re: wheel safe to drive on?
I don't understand what you said the problem was exactly, very confusing. But I get that either the lugs or the studs broke. But no, it's not a very good idea to just have 2 lugnuts holding a wheel on (absolutely not if they are 2 on one side and not 2 across from each other). Chances are if the other 2 broke, that the other 2 are not that great right now anyways. So if you just have it held on with 2 lugs, it will put a lot of stress on them (aka tire ripping off on the highway without notice). Get it fixed immediately.
