rear wheel fell off :-(

Had a good night green laning last night until i came off the lane and my swb series felt very twitchy but not all the time drove about 2 mile and my nearside rear wheel came off and flew past me, landy dropped and the drum sparked and skidded till i could stop managed to retrieve my wheel but im just puzzled now as the threads dont looked stripped as i have tje wheel back on now but just a bit concerned for my next dday out

are holes worn leaving nuts loose

U mean on the wheel? I have actually got BWA alloy wheels fitted quite rare i have been told but the nuts tighteh but they dont look far enough on but someone who seen it today said thats fine his are like that

didnt realise but have seen alot of over tightened steel wheeld where hole enlarged and nuts dont stay tight

There's a whole load of different wheel/nut/bolt combinations and my ears pricked up at the word "alloy" 'cos alloy wheels often need different nuts. A quick google brought this to the top of the list - some useful info.

Im going to put some disco 1 studs on my hubs because the thread too me is not long enough there is about 4 whole turns left on the nuts full tightened, i have got a weeping hub seal that side but im not sure if its related?
