Do you know if the nut stripped? Or the stud?
is it tight? if you loosen the other lugs, could you get a hacksaw blade between the rotor and the wheel to cut the stud off?

Do you own any chisels?

If thats the factory lug which it looks like it is, that chrome part is actually a cap and can be pulled off. Im missing a few on my jk.
The actual lug nut is underneath that chrome cover.

I was going to say the same thing the chrome cap may be just turning on top of the actual lug nut:confused:

I used a hammer and a chisel to remove 4 of mine. Stupid lugs. I tossed all of them and put on factory lug nuts from a 1985 cj, solid steel and uses a 13/16 socket

JK loose lug nut cover

We have used a 18mm 12 point deep socket and pounded it on over the cap and used a long ratchet or 1/2" drive T bar to loosen it also snap on tools has a lug nut removal tool that you pound on over the top to bite in and remove that works very well. Best of Luck:yup:
