    Do you have a camera with a big enough lens to actually photograph something that small?

    Did she at least fondle your nuts nicely? Some say they have lockable nuts but I think they've blown their mind.

    The little blue pill is now being prescribed for intense sunburn.

    It does nothing for the sunburn, but it helps keep the sheets off your legs....

    was there problems before? or did they (costco) do it? when I was in my late teens and didnt know better I took my vehicle to a tire place and I innocently believed a stud and nut was messed up...(later I believe they messed it up and charged me for it..) because nothing was wrong with my lug nuts before I went there.

    Costco always seems to have a problem with my nuts when go to get the tires rotated.

    Too much torque makes the old nuts run hotter. That's what she said, har har. You shouldn't need a breaker bar every time you take them off. One of my biggest gripes is tire shops over torqueing the shit out of the lug nuts. Any time a shop touches my wheels, I always check the torque when I get home, and it's usually too high.

    I'd rather then over torquing them than under torquing them. Last Discount Tire didn't tighten one of the nuts, so it fell right off. Down to 23 lug nuts... :(
