That makes absolutely no sense look at the gouge marks on the spacers right around the bolt holes this..they were wiggling around causing the hub of the wheel to gouge the spacer...if the bolts broke clean there would be no gouge marks or at least not this severe....

As far as no vibration maybe they were tight then and came loose after? who knows. ..This pic shows 3 bolts in good shape.. If the other 2 broke its b/c they came loose..these are hardened 10.9 bolts..they are not going to break unless they are loose and wiggling around..the OP’s picture clearly shows 3 bolts on the ground beside the spacer. (if you zoom in)

There is not a SHRED of doubt that this was a result of poorly torqued bolts..The evidence is clear..and you guys should stop slandering yet another company for what is clearly an install error
