Larry:

That too was my early concern (cross threading a bolt). I don't know if all mine are worn or what, but there is great leeway in driving them in apart from starting them with my hand.

I have wheels off a number of times per week with five daily drivers and snow changes, etc. I'm not reckless but neither am I over picky. I put five lugbots in my hand and feed them in (with the lessor impact driver) rather fast. I was just joking on the nascar deal as most projects have taught me to slow down and think first. But the wheel thing is very fast.

Thanks for the warning however.

Don
