Default Wow!
I heard a noise on the back right tire yesterday and it would get louder when I went faster and I thought it was the bearings, well I checked it and 2 bolts were missing out of the wheel! I had it in the shop for an oil leak and they usually park it across the street over night. Well I think someone tried to jack my tires! Luckily I think someone came before they could take them of anymore bolts off!

Tried to jack your tires...? Oh please. I'm thinking more like someone didn't torque the bolts down.

The tire comment is silly. I'm more concerned (read: worried) that you were missing two wheel bolts!
