Jk* 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Holy sh*t mate, really sorry to hear that!! Hope you get it sorted. I had something similar happen when i had a mk2 golf gti, Luckily the wheel didnt come off as i heard it rattling, but they cross threaded my wheel bolts and they snapped into the hub.
