Are you paul?

I could snap a shot, i didnt touch it yet beacouse im scared of what i might find :frowning: It might be alright, but… I dont know… Its all white scratchey and scrapey like, not a chunk missing or anything, just i know its there…

no, but I’m the mechanic there and can relay the message and/or try to help you out. It may just be a surface scratch from plastic (he uses plastic lined lug sockets) but it usually wouldn’t be white…It still may come off with a light buff if it’s not deep. as for that stuck nut, the welding idea is a great one as well. And perhaps can be done for you in reparations for a damaged rim :wink:

If one broke, id say the other ones might be due to break too, i have no clue how old they are or w/e but id replace them if one of mine broke…

No, it broke because he cross-threaded it. The other lugs are fine.

Wow, your psychic mechanic powers are pretty strong. They teach you that at Northtown? No way looking at that picture you can tell it was cross threaded. :wink:

The lug nut was not crossthreaded…
