              I rechecked all four wheel this afternoon and found the rears to have all 5 (per side) bolts in need of torque up. I'm glad I checked :thumbs:

                quite a few of us have found that your wheel nuts are likely to come loose very quickly if youve just had your rims refurbed/painted. So if you have take extra care :smokin:

                  Well, she had all 4 of her wheels refurbed over a year ago ( under Rags ownership ) + NEW shoes fitted back in October '08. More recently, she's had an Inspection 2 @ Park Lane when I'm sure they would have had the wheels off to inspect the brakes / suspension / etc.. That was only 3000 miles ago, mid May '09. Strangely the fronts were perfectly tight, just not the rears but I'm glad I checked. Would have been totally embarrassing for the wheels to come off @ Brands :whistle:
