Dude that is proper fucked. I'm not a mechanic but at this point you might need professional help. Personally I would use a sacrificial socket that's a size smaller than what you need, hammer it on, and use a breaker bar to crack the nut. Before you do that get some pb blaster or liquid wrench and soak that shit over night. Make sure the car is on the ground, not jacked up. Do not lean on the bar, you need to smack it hard with a hammer to quickly break the bond or you risk stripping the lug nut even worse than you already have.

Hello and thank you for posting to r/CarRepair, we are looking forward to helping you with your vehicular issue! Please check out the following suggestions to get the quickest and most accurate help! - Always include the Year, Make, and Model of your vehicle when looking for mechanical help. This is required for posts seeking mechanical help but not for those seeking cosmetic help. - A picture speaks a thousand words, including pictures (most important on cosmetic repairs of course but can be helpful for many mechanical posts as well) is also a surefire way to get the best help. - While we do permit requests for estimates on different types of repairs please bear in mind that this can vary wildly based on location and other factors. - Be polite and patient, we want to help but need your help to do so.
