I would never say he was right ..............
but since most think you have enough common sense to check things like lug nuts first we went with the next problem. :ROTFL:
but
Simple minds think simple I guess and this time he won since well you know

Being a user of wheel spacers as well, I can not stress enough how important it is to have loctite on those now. I purchased a machined set from a US company for a fraction of the cost of spidertrax...and they are working fantastic. They have stayed tight from day one. It is also important to follow torque settings for the lugs as well. I do 100lbs all the way around, and retorque after 50 miles.

Now, if only I could have gotten some wider tires on some off-set wheels instead.
