I noticed my rear sprocket is loose I tightened the bolts but it still moves I’m not sure what it could be, maybe it was always loose and I never took notice? Ideas?

The nuts don't bolt the sprocket to the wheel. They hold the studs to the sprocket for the cush drive bushings. The only thing flat holds the sprocket to the wheel is that big snap ring in the middle.

Yes after posted I realized my mistake in bolts instead of nuts,

So the snap ring needs replaced?

If it isn't missing then no. They just have some play to them.
