    Dylan when you say right hardware you mean bolt size?
    Im using stock bolts with them because i wouldve thought they'd be fine. the guy i purchased off of, ran them for a while without any problems on stock bolts. so maybe i just didnt tighten them up properly when i first put them on? but it was only the front left that was loose, every other wheel was tight
    You need longer bolts if they are slip on spacers. Ie if they are 5mm spacers, you need bolts with 5mm more thread. Stock bolts are 27mm of thread iirc

    Thread length, seat type, hub centric spacers? All will cause issues if not correct

    They're 25mm bolt on hubcentric spacers and from knowledge of the friend i bought them off, the stock bolt length is correct. the seat type is correct, and the only conclusion i can come to is that they weren't tight enough on the car
