alright the story goes as this haha. the guy was headd to they autox with the car and he had different wheels on and wanted to put the ones on in the video. he stopped at autozone or whatever and told them he needed different lug nuts to fit inside these wheels. well they looked them up and gave him lug nuts, he got there put them on and tightened them. here when he went outand did that, they found out there were the wrong lugs. they went tight as normal but the thread diamter or whatever were just a size off. so when he went moving they worked them selves loose and as you can see what happen. believe that is the most of it. i know there is a post another forum explaining how it happened

That’s why you check with the deliver first, not AutoZone. He was better of going to a rim shop for the lug nuts. What a Dum NUT. Looks like he doesn’t have any nuts.
