I had new wheels put on and when I got home I noticed that in the back the rusty rotors did'nt look good. So I went to go paint them and when I took the lugs off for tire removal the garage guys cross threaded a lug on and I had to break it to get it off.
Does anybody know if these are the pressed in type or are they reverse threaded in? Also when you buy a new cobra, check for lug tightness I was missing two lugs on the factory setup.

About the lug I'm sure that I will find out when I go to the ford dealer, it is a ford only part.

You can switch them out in no time, this is one situation where having an IRS suspension is a good thing. :D
