[QUOTE="Gitbox, post: 1408482, member: 86950"] I recently went through a similar event. A local tire company fixed a flat for me (off the vehicle) and offered to pop it back on. Against my better instincts, I let him. When I got home I decided to re-torque the wheel nuts to spec as I always do. I wound up wringing off four of the five studs. The nuts were seized. The service manage said "bring it back and we'll take care of it". How am I supposed to drive with one stud holding on a wheel?? I told him to pound sand and demanded reimbursement for my parts and labor. I fixed it all myself and now steer EVERYONE I know away from that place. [/QUOTE]
