Apparently You can Thread Lug nuts.. Backwards.

According to this guy on youtube who commented on this old video.

Apparently, his wheels fell off because he put on his lugnuts.. backwards.

@420inthe604 How the fuck do you put lug nuts on backwards? Are you stupid? They only thread one way.

@spugen Now now, don't be an ignorant tool. I know for a fact it's possible because some goofball, very possibly the kind of character like yourself, put them on backwards. The customer then was driving on a narrow bridge in the middle of the city with her child in the back when all 4 wheels came off. It's very possible, go read a book.

I don't know if I should laugh.. or cry.
I don't even know how to reply to that.

What is was those lugs where it a hole all the way through and one side is a tapered side.

So he put the non tapered side on the wheel and than everything broke ?

That guy is an idiot. The lugnuts were not properly torqued and they all bailed when the tires started to turn.
It makes me wonder how this sperm won out of half a billion to produce this genius.

^ it was, parts store gave him the wrong size, threads were touching just enough to "tighten" down, not enough that they didn't just pull off when he started racing.

if they are open ended, its possible. but that would be kinda stupid as the taper is obvious that it should sit towards the wheel, not away from it.

A guy i went to highschool with thought that was how they go on - so an impact gun centers on the lug nut and goes on faster!

I dont believe that for a second. If you can torque it down to 90ft/lbs theres no way they should come off or slip in anyway.

Well, we all know that it's old, and the whole story behind it.

It's just funny how someone would think that it happened because you put it on BACKWARDS.

Even if it's open-ended, it doesn't thread in past the first centimeter. Any idiot would figure that out.

uh... yeah it does.

if you take any nut, lug nut, lock nut, nuts with welded washers or just plain nuts in general it doesn't matter which way you put it in, it'll thread ALL the way in.
