Default Uhmm.. broke my studs right off

Ok so it was a nice day and I was doing some burnouts (1 or 2 quick ones) and was driving it pretty good on the highway.. and i heard something clunking on the way home so i pulled off onto a side road and ewas trying to figure out where it was coming from (new it was happenong in the rear somewhere. so I get 1 block away from my house and BOOM. the entire rear end collapsed down about 3-4 inches.. i got out looked under the car to see what broke.. didn't see anything.. stood back 5 feet and looked at my rear drivers side tire and rim which was still on. I noticed it was crooked look at it.. BROKE THE STUDS RIGHT OFF! I have a wheel spacer on but its not the wheel spacer studs that broke.. it was the factory studs that go threw the rotor!

Where can I buy these and how much are they!!! I need to know QUICK because my cars sitting on the side of a sorta busy road right now and I cant even get it home..


HELPPPPP!!

well you can get them from autozone but they might not have them in stock. you are going to need to call a tow truck either way i think. Spacers have been known to break the studs many times
