I pulled my lower back trying to loosen overly tight lug nuts on my LR4. Sucked.

Make sure you don't over tighten them when putting them back on! Note also that bolts have a tendency to swell over time so rather than being 22mm they end up being closer to 23mm... I believe the bolts are steel with a secondary stainless steel layer to look nice! The underlying steel core seems to corrode over time hence the expansion to 23mm.
Photos please???One of the reasons I love having my Defender steelies and the accompanying LR129123 Land Rover lug nuts. Bonus is they allow me to run the dorky Land Rover plastic hubcap.
Photos please???
I just had this happen to one of mine at 105k so I replaced them all with the same OEM lugs. They must have gotten them from the same place as those damn Ford ones.Make sure you don't over tighten them when putting them back on!
