my best bet would he his off chamber, bad alignment and heavy wheels would pull on the lug studs over a prolonged period of time, but honesly i make no assumptions because i don't know everything about the situation, i tend to reserve my conclusions till i have enough evidence to back them up (unless i'm asked for theories)
