Billy writes:  I recently had my tires rotated by a reputable shop, when I went to drive away I heard a loud snap from the rear of the truck (a 98 ford ranger 4×4 by the way). I stopped immediately and told the shop Foreman who drove the truck back into the bay.

When they got it up in the air they found the center of my wheel had cracked around the lug holes. When they tried to take the wheel off the impact could not break the lug nuts loose, they had to lower the truck and use a 4 foot cheater bar on a big torque wrench.
