[SEL] OT - Lug Nuts

[Rex Hinz]

Sorry Guys , What I mean Is when you lose a wheel  going down the road at 55 
it don't just stop and lay down they can travel a mile and do lots of damage 
, I work for a trucking company that why I hate dry wall screwes , I have 
large coffee can full of naile and stuff I find in tires , most are dry wall 
screws
