Your doing it wrong!
Holy crap man, how could you not notice something like that? Have you checked your oil yet? Owners manual FTW.
BTW you spelled "the" wrong 12 times, and correctly 5 times. Whatever grading scale you work under, that does equate to 'FAIL.'
(just for future reference, Sartis and I are both perfect)
You should never have rolled the car a foot once you noticed/were notified of the problem.
That video was absolutely hilarious.

So you drove the car 6000 miles and all the sudden the wheels fall off? That seems weird. Glad you survived, hope it's not too expensive to fix.
I've got some stock S2000 lug nuts you can have if you need some.

6k miles and 10 months....I say that someone probably tried to steal your wheels and got spooked during the process. If the wheel was installed incorrectly that long ago you would have noticed at least a little shake when you started driving day 1.
He's not the first with this issue, others noticed nothing until the studs broke. He got lucky that they loosened over time instead of breaking.
Loose lugs are very obvious when driving though, I've experienced them at 100+MPH and immediately slowed down and went into the pits asap. Continuing to drive, even for a short distance is just asking for trouble. Couldn't easily stop on sebring, but on the street you should have immediately.

I had to stop reading because, he kept driving the car knowing his wheels could fall off at any time
Be safe young man for your self and others, please don't drive your car cartoon style with the wheels wobbling all around

Regarding some of my earlier posts. I don't regret saying what I did. This used to be a forum where I had high opinions of people and it seemed that everyone was polite and friendly. but as of late there has been some real asshole comments and just outright rudeness going on. I don't know if it's the election or what but some people need to relax, get laid or whatever.
The misspelling of "the" is common among those of us who are not perfect in the art of touch typing. Some of us have lives that extend beyond the realm of the internet.
