So, this is really starting to chap my hide! 2 wheel studs broke off on the driver and passenger side a couple months back. So on the drivers side, I had all 5 replaced and only 2 on the passenger side. AND now this morning, another passenger side stud broke off! WTH!
So, here is what I am running:
17x10.5" wheels wrapped in GSD3's.
LFP 3/8" hubcentric wheel spacers with special lug nuts. The lug nuts are designed to squeeze through the wheel and inside of the spacer so it is grabbing plenty of tread.
I am at my witts end!:bash:
Questions I have for the group:
1) What torque is everyone setting their lug nuts too?
2) Has anyone else experienced this problem?
3) What are the chances of a set of all brand new lug studs breaking off after they are all replaced?
This is really pissing me off and I'm about to junk the whole car over this issue!
Help appreciated.
Thanks.
