Looks like a prior owner forced a lug nut to thread all the way home despite it not really wanting to fit.
Time to take a tap/die set to the hub and then make sure I have a clean/good lug? Assume so but wanted to double check (please). Thanks! |

Try a thread chaser first. They help to reform the existing thread rather than cut new.
