You probably stripped the stud. Did you start them by hand, or did you just gun them on? You should just need a new stud and lug.

You'll have to get the lug at a Honda dealer, but the stud is probably like $1.50 at an auto parts store.

You can prevent that from happening again by starting all the lugs off by hand before you use the gun.
