I had the same problem when i bought my car but unfortunately i had no idea what to do and had mine drilled out but a tire shop should be able to put a socket on them and get them off fyi i paid $40 and you really shouldn't pay anymore than that

same thing happened to my friend, he turned down a side street(conveniently mine) and his rim snapped off, his car bottomed out and only the centerpiece was attached to the car. he didnt have the key and one lug was stripped. he was in the road when this completely unreasonable cop came and started calling a tow truck. we eventually snapped the lugnut off, threw the spare on and raced off as the tow truck was showing up. he lived 2 blocks away, no way was he gonna pay a hundred dollars to get it towed there. but yeah we did everything and anything to get it off but i wouldnt recommend it lol good luck
