Lug bolt problems
So I'm on the 3rd set of rear lug bolts. On a hard launch the car is shearing them off. Has anyone stepped up to a 14 x 1.5 lug or a stud?

what torque are you using and where are you getting them from. I drive the crap out of my car and have never broken a bolt. Not even with my C32 and it had a lot more power. I think we need more info.

Just how much is this car, "not stock" because you shouldn't be shearing lug nuts?
