If the lack of symmetry is bothering you that much, just remove three lug nuts from every wheel so the count is the same.

Then will need 3 more studs for spare.

That may actually be less dangerous than what he is doing now.

I reported it as wrong section. Very easy to do. I think the Admin cleans up such stuff.

After sitting outside in 100 degree heat…. Still there! I’m sure it must be the GLITER i used to help hold them on. Kidding!

Hate to be the windshield of the car behind you when one of the glued lugnuts decides to become unglued.....

UPDATE!!! After almost 2 years, hot glued lug nuts are still secure. NO problems what so ever. All haters can STAND DOWN now.
Is this bring old threads back to life day at B6G?

Also, there hasn't been one thread (that I've ever seen) where someone who hasn't glued their lug nuts had a spare tire fall off or drop their nuts o_O

In my opinion, I would not trust your opinion "they will hold just fine". All fun and games until one flys off and hits a vehicle, cyclist or pedestrian.
My thoughts also. Interstate at 80MPH and hit a bump and one falls off going through someone's wind shield like a bullet. Seems like a bad idea IMO.

Seems like it only a matter of time before its "Well guys X years and it finally happen".

We would not get anymore annual updates on this. No way in hell OP admits to this being a bad idea if the glue does give way some day.
