    Lug bolts sheared off...

    ...Coming out of a tight 275* onramp of spirited driving, my front gets strong shakes. Pull over, just to find two of my front driver wheel lugs completely sheared off and fell out (with the broken part of thread still in the hub, and sheared right at the hub). WTF?! What could have caused this? I do re-torque relativelly frequently. I'm also running 10mm H&R spacers.
