torque wrench on wheels nuts is a waste of time.

post picture please.

is the hex damaged?

there is nothing on a car a 1.5 meter long breaker bar can't take care of.

if hex is damaged, i recommend bolt grips.

Sound like its the type when you insert a hex key into the nut and the out side is round

Good to know you feel that way...

As mentioned previously, I'd bring it back to the person who last took the wheel nuts off the car and on again.
Otherwise, breaker bar + a loooong metal pipe and just use your body weight on it to hopefully undo the c****! :)

Well said !

How tight can a bolt be that a breaker bar can't undo? =o

Use your musk-klez, put your back into it (proper lifting technique) or put your body weight on it as said above ^

But I'm interested to see a pic of what was broken.

If the nut is that tight then extreme force will probably break the wheel stud, and end up in tears...

Yeah probably true ^

Go back and complain to whoever tightened it or bring it to a mechanic and buy a new set of wheel studs? Or DIY if you know how

Go to the gym

this was not a serious comment.
as people saying what someone else has already said in a different manner to try and get rep amuses me lol

Thanks for the comments
tried the heat gun wiht my impact wrench (sorry meant that not an air rattle gun if thats what you though)
no luck

also the wheel nut looks fine

think whoever tightened it put way too much torque into it

mite just need to buy a breaker bar n try

get a good half inch breaker bar from repco (of decent length) and the appropriate sized socket to suit. i think its a 19mm.
OR
alternatively put the nuts back on and drive to bridgestone and ask for a wheel allignment. cost abt 60 bucks saves effort. and if they damage it maybe they will pay? if not they did as much damage as you would of done.
