Someone stole one lugnut...
Someone (probably a kid) stole one of my lugnuts off my car today. So I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a site online in which I could buy one. I have the polished 20's and since it is my DD it would be great to be replaced asap. thanks in advance.

It's possible it just fell off if it came loose.
You should check all of them. Buy a set of locks and you won't need to order another.

I would check the rest of them, make sure they're tight.

Very strange, I can't imagine someone wanting to steal one lug nut, but these days who knows?

Childish games... Taking one is just stupid. I remember my old friend used to take any nice ones he saw and put them on his bike ...

maybe someone was going to take your wheels and you or someone else came up and scared them off?

I don't know, I could kind of see some little punk kid steel a single lug nut... It's just as bad as the little punks that used to steel "cappies," imo. Sounds like someone needs to sit in a dark corner of theirr front porch with a shotgun full of salt pellets and have a little party... Just don't aim near the car, lol!

kids are not skilled with lug wrenches --- GM assembly line blew it- Chev dealer can get new parts for Chevrolets .

Just my thought, you should always check your lugs yourself, even if you have a new tire put on at a tire shop or have someone rotate your tires. My last new car had a few lugs that weren't torqued to spec. The camaro lugs are torqued to 140 lbft, that's a lot of torque to undo for a punk kid passing by.
