Probably user error.

Considering the hundreds of thousands of Subarus out on the road with the same lug nuts you have, you'd think they break more often...

I've never had any issue with any type of OE stud/lug nut, unless I contaminated the threads somehow.

And I've owned somewhere around 150 sets of wheels across 15 cars.
