help, after all.
and yes, i got sick of my discs warping after tire place kept over-torquing the wheel bolts, so i know how that goes.
and yes, there are plenty of folks asking for help after going in the wrong way, so it isn't that unsafe to assume a guy may not have a clue.
it really was just that i don't break bolts, pretty sensitive to required forces, and i was surprised, and a little concerned, that a bolt that is so essential to keeping the wheel on the road would be that weak. after seeing that i'm not the first to experience this with these cheaper sets, i am just going to avoid these particular bolts.
hope that clears the air some...
