broke lugs`

[ExTrEmEDrIfT]

ok so i dont know if its just my time for badluck or what but i was coming back from a night of clubbin and drinking but i wasnt drunk , anyways im on the highway and i start feeling this shaking so i figure it was my tires at first then i slow down to like 55 and next thing i know is my rear left side of my car drops down and i see my tire passing me rolling down the highway.. so i start heading over to the shoulder pretty pissed off as to what had just happened , so when i get out i look and all my wheel lugs were snapped off ... i havent ever taken those rims off , i did get new tires not tooo long ago but they shouldnt have touched the rears at all since i only got new fronts and i have 2 diff sizes for front and rear.. ok back to what i was saying though , so i call a tow truck and get my car towed to my house and the damn guy when trying to push my car backwards a lil bit with the flatbed and the front tires on the edge of the ramp he ended up puncturing my new tire i got like a week ago .... so im fixing this crap today but luckily nothing happened and everything was ok .. im gunna try and see if the tow place will replace my tire since it was their damn fault theyre probably gunna try and bullshyt wit me ...

wait a minute...your wheel came off your car while it was moving and there was no damage to your car. you should need more than a few lug nuts to fix that problem...that whole assembly is probably trashed not to mention body work.

anyways good luck and good thing your alright. you should probably replace all of your lugs with new ones so it doesnt happen again.

well your lucky...i had a buddy that has an S10 Extreme. he put some of those 20" spoke wheels on it. the wheel broke and he royally f***ed up his truck. but the company who made the wheels paid to fix his truck and bought him a new set of wheels of his liking.

Well on the brite side thats a EASY repair. I think it takes me about a half hour to replace all 5 lugs and another hour to hang rotors and pads on both sides. And thats taking my time.
