story is guy got new wheels, and bought lug nuts from a vendor at the show without even checking if they would fit

they were slightly too large, the threads locked, but once stress was put on them the just sheared off the studs

That sucks!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully that can be traced to the vendor paying for the damage....but I doubt it!
