I own a 1991 Mercedes and was well overdue for new brakes. Upon inspection, I had three cross threaded wheel bolts. If you have this problem on an older car with long seemingly impossible bolts like me, I have the answer. The head broke off of two of the bolts so any normal attempt through drilling of pounding or wrenching wouldn't work. Simply loosen all wheel bolts that you can and attach a chain with a hook to the rim of the car youre fixing and the other end of the chain to a truck or strong car and rip that sucker off. F.y.i. you'll need a replacement rim more than likely. Good luck, most shops charge a LOT.

How do you wrongly threaded bolt?

A wrongly threaded bolt occurs when the threads on the bolt do not align properly with the corresponding nut or threaded hole. This can happen due to cross-threading, where the bolt is misaligned during insertion, leading to damaged threads. Additionally, using a bolt with the wrong thread pitch or diameter for the application can result in improper fit and function. Always ensure that the bolt and nut match in specifications to prevent threading issues.
