Yeah I agree with all of that.
One of my pet peeves is giving safety critical items like this a couple gut-feel ugga duggas instead of following the right procedures. I recently had a body shop destroy half a dozen studs on my car zipping them on with air tools.
It’s crazy how much we have normalized half-assed wheel installations.
