Guys double check your wheel studs when you change them

As above

 

Finished the other side of my car last night put the new wheel on and went for a quick drive to fill up and make sure its all ok (no rubbing banging etc). All was fine, got in the car today to drive to work and halfway there a god awful vibration started along with a whuf whuf whuf sound. So pulled over pretty sharpish and noticed my wheel had come away from the hub on 3 nuts by about 1-2mm :blink: Lukily I dont live to far from work (was going to show the guys my new bling wheels) and managed to crawl into the carpark thats right next to a wheel/tyre place so will get it put on straight there.

 

I think this was caused by the studs not being pulled through their holes complety so when they did settle in it moved the wheel with them, just glad I wasnt doing 80 down the motorway.
