How many lug bolts have you snapped in your life?
To date I've snapped 7 all together.
Not on this car...with my old one, a 1990 Honda Prelude. Man, what a piece of junk that car was.

Zero. Although I have snapped a lug nut in half while trying to break it loose. The shock from it shearing cracked my collar bone. It was on a giant old Dodge my neighbor had and I was at the end of a 36" breaker bar.

Lost one this winter, along with a couple of nuts that stripped. Was lucky though, the snow on the roads kept the front end off of the pavement.
Too many to count, and 2 of them were last saturday. These are all whilst taking off someone else's cross threaded nuts they put on previously. Impact just snaps the stud in half when trying to take it off
None on the tib btw
