Re: suggestion on stripped Torx

Yeah i have one of those that is probably good for one more removal. I happen to have a wheel off, so here are a couple of pics. The screw does have a beefy head, but a shallow inset. It's recessed about 1". You could try a bolt/screw extractor with a stubby head. Otherwise it might be grinder ...
