right, and u drove my car when??? im not some phuck who doesnt care about my car, i actually regulary check my oil, tire pressure, and lug tightness, thus if a lug stud was broke i wouldve KNOWN, i did all that 2 days ago when i bought 8 bucks worth of gas at rapid roberts, As i said, the steering wheel did violent shaking for about 6 seconds total before i had totally stopped, maybe perhaps the wheel shaking was caused by, low and behold, broken wheel studs...

Well im open to whoever has a theory, heres scenario one more time: 17'' toxxin which is a relatively weighty wheel, too much camber on that wheel, it has been like this for several months, i had just gotten an alignment done 6 or 7 months ago so i dont know why it wouldve gone bad, i dotn do burnouts, i dont curb my wheels, i do live down a rather bumpy road, which over time will knock the car out of alignment... your studs were fine, yay for you fuji, but did u drive months with the wheel like that? probably not, i have assumed since lastnight when this happened that the broke fromt eh stress of the combined size of the wheel and the bad camber setting,
i know it doesnt make sense that 3 of them would break like that, but if one broke, then the volent shaking begins, then the next one which is already weak breaks, then the next one which is just as weak breaks, doesnt that make sense too?

yah, she has been causing me some problems, but i did get her from new-york, and well we all know rust doesnt help anything at all... my first one was locally owned and had no rust on it, usual parts failure with it, CV joints at 130k, few other minor things.. its always wierd shiz with my "new" car...
