Stripped Lug Studs

I was trying to take my front passenger wheel off to do an oil change. I got all the lug nuts off except one. When i tried to take that lug off, the lug nut and stud started spinning. Any advice on removing it before i need to succumb to extreme measures. I have a TL-S 2008 with the waffles.

Thanks in advanced!

to get the lug nut off, you might have to grip it with some vice grips and try drilling into it to remove the center section. This will allow the lug nut to come off in 1 piece and not destroy your rim in the process. Once the nut is off, use the above linked guide to replace the stud. It might be wise to replace all 5, or all 25 on the car if they are in bad shape.

You don't replace the studs on your spare?
