SORRY A.M PARKWAY MOTORISTS

I just got home a few minutes ago instead of being at work. This morning my wheel came off on the garden state parkway.

You guys know how people get when theirs an accident on the parkway and how they feel towards the people involved,they're pissed & dont care.

My spacer on my front left wheel got loose jiggled snapped 2 studs off my rotor. Then the other lug nuts for the spacer came off and th wheel went flying down the turnpike leaving me driving for 1/6 of a mile with no front left wheel. I WILL NEVER BUY EBAY SPACERS AGAIN!!


I just spent 70 on a tow for 1 mile to a gas station where they replaced my rotor and assembly for 68 bucks plus 65 dollars in parts. Not to menton missing a days worth of work which I problaly would have made $350 with the route I was told I had today! All because of a crappy made spacer. I heard horror stories about these things before but didnt think it would happen to me!
Any one else running spacers on their thirdgens? Anyone with loose spacer stories, any one running ebay ones I should say?
