You could try finding a nut with the right thread and then grinding down the
top half of the nut so it doesn't hit the wheel ... but I would not
recommend it.  And after "stripping out" a nut, I would want to replace the
stud as well.

Losing a wheel at speed is no fun at all.  BTDT, threw away the T-shirt (and
undies).
