| The story behind the video is that the company that dude ordered wheels off of gave him the wrong size lug nuts. |

wrong size lug nuts??
how is that possible .. they will either thread on or not ... if its spins on stud twice and is tight there is something wrong ... thats just an excuse for someone who forgot to tighten his lug nuts ...

wow......... the driver side rear looks as if all the studs were ripped off. I saw a few studs left on the other hubs.
going back through the comments it says that he bought those wheels the day of the event and the stock lug nuts wouldn't fit. So he went and bought some generic ones at auto zone or some **** and they stripped off under weight......... i think he just forgot to tighten them. |

imo if someone is showing up to an event owning an rx7 and doesn't know how to properly tighten his own lugnuts, he deserves to have this happen

| Actually when i look at that vid again looks like he might've torqued down those lugs way too tight causing them to break... either that or he bought some **** studs and they were just bad quality.... tighter isnt always better! too much torque and you'll always break something. |

God's wrath for still having a rotary. He can get vengeful when you dishonor him like that.

Im trying ofigure out exactly how all four wheels come off at the same time. I just have this feeling it was some kind of cruel joke. 
It was amusing though.
