LFairbanks Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Well I got three wheels on, got the the 4th and as I'm taking off the final lug, the fking stud snaps.. That is the exact reason I never trust anybody to work on my vehicles. If I get new tires, I specify the torque and watch them. Somebody probably got a little busy with the impact and stretched the stud. Years ago I was doing rear brakes on a vehicle I had. Broke 10 of the 12 studs. After that never again. Wheels look nice BTW. Edited July 26, 2013 by LFairbanks MAYBEN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluezey Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Well I see that I'm late again to the party, but I voted Interlagos, the main thing being less sharp corners to clean, fifteen spokes =thirty corners to collect brake dust, compared to nine spokes=eighteen said corners. and Besides the interlagos look better!
