How tight do you guys tighten your car's lugnuts? Because too tight is not good...(killing the stud i think) and too loose...well..maybe something like the RX7 happens.
I dont have a torquewrench thing (yet). And I suppose that not everyone has and use such thing to just tighten their lugnuts after each tire change. Some garages uses compressorguns and just let it "klaklaklaklakalk".
So how much do you fasten it? (after turning 6 threads)

If you turn it 6 times om the thread it wont be a problem.. when one of them will loosen up you will feel like you have a bended wheel. Your steering wheel will shake a little. If youre sure you dont have a bended wheel check your lugnuts. I experienced it in the car of my neveu. He drove further with the car and the steering wheel becan to shake harder and harder till the second one broke.... at that moment he couldn't even drive anymore.
