Ok, heres the situation. On Susans Spitfire we're switching from some heavy aluminum alloy wheels that use the shoulder lug nuts to Minilite replicas. The Minilites were originally sold to fit a GT6.

<< My question is, if the hole in the wheel is larger than the wheel stud is this a problem when using the tapered type lug nuts? In other words, does it matter if the sides of the studs don't make c

You certainly want to make sure that the nuts don't bottom against the hub / before they pull the wheel up tight. - Tony Drews

Brad, Sorry not to have replied sooner. I have what I believe to be the world's supply of NOS Minilite lug nuts. They go through the wheel and have no taper. A flat washer mounts between the nut and

Unless you taper the mouth of the stud hole, the contact between the tapered nut and the wheel will be very small. It will probably work loose a few times until wear and pressure makes you some machi

Or make a shoulder 'washer' that fits the shoulder on one side and the taper on the other. An hour with a piece of steel rod and a lathe should make that solution. Two hours and you could crank them

It is only a problem if the studs are not in the right place. In fact, the sides of the studs *shouldn't* make contact with the wheel. (think of it acting like a file under vibration...) My Panaspor

The Fat Chance garage has a bunch of 7/16" tapered seat lug nuts in stock. Hmmm, I've been meaning to order more of the 3/8-24 mag lugs for those poor souls who haven't upgraded their wheel studs yet
