If you have, or know someone that has, a portable band saw, just trim your lug studs. Buy a regular nut same thread size and pitch, run it on stud, cut stud to desired length, run nut off to clean the end. Repeat and rinse.
The first thing I want to do when I spend $15k on axles is ale a band saw to it instead of just getting the correct lug nuts. Totally.
Well, when the correct lug nuts are near impossible to find, you adapt.
Actually you can order your axles with the correct brackets. The lug nuts are not impossible to find. You just can’t get them overnight from Amazon like people want.
Well bummer man, sorry to hear that. I found some non splined taper lug nuts, they are not acorns but straight tapers, but my wheels have a good tapered surface and they are holding just fine. Remember you are lug centric now, so finding the right lug nut along with the proper torque/ sequence of torque is crucial to having any kind of balance. Check out Mcguard, I thing they've got some 2.1s that aren't splined, but if I remember correctly they are only in chrome.
Appreciate the help! I looked at the McGard lug nuts, just the 7/8 socket does not fit well on my wheel. I mean I guess it fits but it's just going to jack up the powder coat which wouldn't look cool at the mall...
Oh how I miss next and same day Amazon prime... I'm over here in the stone ages with 2 day still..
Those are the ones I bought.
