PM'ed you, but Nev has a point, check your others, I replace loads of wheel studs, people often lube them to much, you can put up to 25% more 'actual' torque on a lubed thread over dry one for the same torque wrench setting so they are often under to much strain.

afraid i'm guilty of lubing them, although i am generally very carefull about doing them up, it was wierd as i found one snapped, one not very tight and the rest ok!!, i did em last time so it's down to me, anyway replyed to the PM,
cheers
When a couple o' mine broke about 2 years ago I ordered some in from my local stealer Ian, along with a couple of shouldered wheel nuts for the original alloys..
