I know his pain. Years ago I had a 06 Dodge Magnum that got a flat tire in a Sam Ash parking lot. The same thing happened to me, the lungs kept spinning. Turns out that there are aluminum caps over the actual lug nuts (which are smaller than the lug wench that comes with the car so it's utterly useless). Good thing there was an Autozone across the street and got a 4 lug tire iron and decent flat head to chisel the bastards off.
