It's going to need to be drilled out. Tape up your wheel and do it at Tony's. It can be done it will just take time.
edit.. scratch the dremel idea out. I just noticed how far in the wheel this is.
use some steel drill bits and start in the center small and increase the bit size. Chew out the middle and crack off the nut.

did you over torque it or did it just happen with normal use? those are big money for that to happen I would deff call the company and ask for a free lug at the least

Damn John, and I just sold my heavy duty hammer drill with the side grip. It would have came in handy for this.

I'd really hate to damage the wheel and have it sent out for PC again. I don't have an spare tire. Its such an inconvenience. But Saturday afternoon works for me

I thought we had the block party next sat?
John, I still have my cordless drill if you want to try sometime after work this week. I'm sure we can do it. It's just drilling out the bolt, pullin off the nut and then you can take it to the mechanic to pull out the rest of the bolt. That won't take long and you can drive the car with out one bolt.
