Tightening the bolt down to much can cause this due to not enough roll in the pin ( hence the term roll pin) when the pin doesnt roll friction is applied and at full throttle when the nut is tight the rim flexes and causes the pin to strip it out, a dremel and a xacto knife can correct this but not for long.
