HELP: Stripped stud
Alright guys, so i decided to rotate my tires today and ended up stripping one of the stud in the passenger front wheel, 4/5 lug nuts are within torque specs.
I have a few questions is it okay to ride on 4/5 lug nuts?
The lug nut and stud is completely stripped. I sourced out a lug nut for $6 but i can't seem to find just 1 oem stud?
(is this the correct lug nut 21mm)

What size is the stud itself?
To replace the stud, i have to remove the brake calipers and rotor correct?
Thanks guys.

I went to Lordco when I broke a stud. They had the stud in stock AND the exact special Gorilla lug nut. I bought both for like $6?
Within 20 minutes, I was back home installing the new stud.

Thanks guys! Ended up going to the dealers and paid $11 for the stud and lug nut. The pepboys near me was out of stock and i didn't want to wait.
All i gotta say is WOW, it was much easier to replace a broken stud on a Lexus versus my old STI.
