You broke a stud after putting them on at 80 ft/lbs? Hell, 80 ft/lbs feels like nothing with a good torque wrench...hell, seized or not...

Dubya tee eff?

I wouldn't dare Auto-X at all, AK...that could be a lot of lateral force put on the wheels, and you may strip out the threads on the other studs. Just take it in and get the stud fixed ASAP. It'll be ok on regular driving for a while Im sure.
