Left hand thread lugs - stay or go?

The scenario goes like this...

Your wife/girlfriend is borrowing the car for some reason. She gets a flat, and has AAA come out to change the tire. The gorilla driving the towtruck goes to break the nuts loose before he jacks the car up and they just ain't going. He figures some monkey put them on with an air impact wrench at pep boys. Inspiration strikes the gorilla, the lightbulb flickers dimly above his head right before it buzzes and pops sending the magic electronic smoke out to pollute the atmosphere and cause more global warming, submerging all those insignificant island nations in the south pacific. He grabs his breaker bar and section of pipe to break them loose and shears the studs off.

Ditch them. If you don't, you will certainly pay for it with a screwed up ride. You will also have to live with the guilt for causing untold millions to become homeless as ocean levels rise, and hurricanes ravage the east coast.

Such is the butterfly effect of failing to make your car better. Bad CARma.


i believe you have won this one, good sir.
