Get a torch and heat up the lug nut. Then use a pair of channel locks or pipe wrench. If that doesnt work, you might want to look at bolt extractors.

All of the above suggestions are good. However, getting the lug off the stud is sometimes more difficult than getting the stud off the hub.

If everything else fails try drilling straight through the middle of the stud. Use progressively larger drill bits. Use a good cutting oil and go slowly. When you get to a large enough bit the tire will be free. You can order just a single stud and they press in.
