so i got my tires swapped around but one of the lug nuts was siezed pretty good and i ended up snapping it off. i was wondering how difficult it will be to remove the broken lug bolt and get the new one in and if i''ll need any special tools. i''m getting ready to call around to find the part.

bummer doods

think it''s ok to drive around like that for a short amount of time. it''s the front passender side wheel.

If it''s a V6 with 5 lugs, you''re fine with 4.  If you have 3 left of 4, you are ok for a bit, but should be a little concerned with leaving it that way.  Basically, you have to remove the hub, press out the old stud and press in a new one .... if you don''t have access to a press, you need to have it done for you.
