Default stud broke

the other day my stud broke on my back left wheel, should i replace it right away or can i hold off, it;s still driving smooth, but what can happen driving with 4 studs on one wheel. can that cause vibration or what should i worry about. i have 20's by the way. it went over 100 with no problems.

youre gonna die!!

no, jk. i've been through a winter with just 4 studs on a 5lug car...should be okay for now, but i'd get it fixed ASAP. Its a cheap fix (i think midas and place like that would fix it for you too) and just to be safe.

Yea if I were you I would fix it asap too. There was a discussion on where you can buy stronger replacements and which ones you should get.

Default Just spray some wd40 on it

let it soak and then hamme it out. You can buy a new one at a parts store for about 2 bucks.
