Default Grrrr... lug stud!

I had to put on my spare the night before last, it has become unbalanced due to a small bulge on the sidewall... took all the lugs off but one... when I attempted to take it off ittook like 10 minutes because the PO crossthreaded the lugnut. So, upon removing it finally I see that there is a whole section of thread missing on the stud... @$#%!@#%!$#@%!$#%@$#%!@!&%$^&!#$%!$#% !!! lol so that is my plan for sunday, my only day off this week.

Ive got those all the way around!! Such a stupid design. I used the 11/16 size on my 4 way wrench and jammed it on with a hammer and it fit snug as a bug in a rug!
