That is the old McGuard style. We used to have that come up in high school.
1)Try a vice grip first. They are not supposed to work, but if it's not too tight it will work
2)Remove all the other nuts and pry it off. The last stud will break on a 5 lug wheel.
3)Find a welding shop. Weld an old extension on and turn it off. (My preferred method)
4)Front wheel? Pull the bearings and the wheel. See post #3
