stripped lugs

The wells in the hub as well as 3 of the lug nuts are stripped. The place where I replaced my tires blames the dealer, and vice versa. Anyone have any experience with this? Dealer says parts/labor will run 750. I cant really say no unless I want my car back with 2 lugs connecting the wheel....

grrrr

Had the same thing happen to me.

Are you running StopTechs or Flik wheels? The combo is lethal.

I have couple stud kits left in stock...

I also have 30mm Dacromet coated lug nuts for aftermarket wheels. Highly recommend over what EdgeRacing may have sent you. $55 shipped.
