really, how does that happen? I left all the lugnuts on my car loose one time and drove the car around the block before one of the wheels came off (hey don't laugh at me!!) this guy lost all of them at the same time!

Somebody on another forum (who was there at the event) explained what happened: The guy bought new lug nuts from his tire dealer, but it turns out that while it had the correct thread pitch, the lugs were slightly too big. The guy torqued them down, but there was not enough thread contacting the stud, which caused them to shear off.
