Lug nuts?
I have a set of Cobra 20" wheels, problem is I cant use my stock lug nuts, because I can't get a socket to fit into the whole cut for the lugnut in the wheel. How can I get around this? smaller lug nut different style of lug nut? I just spent $800 for tires so I need to find a solution. any help much appreciated.

Re: Lug nuts?
What size of hole. Go to a chrome lugnut that takes a 3/4" socket, instead of the large 13/16" socket. Get a set of tuner lugnuts that use a splined socket. We are using them on the son's Toyota rims and they take up little space.

Re: Lug nuts?
No idea on hole size, I'll check that when I get home. if a 3/4 will fit Ill probably change lugnuts to that. I've had horrible expierence with tuner lug nuts though, so a chrome one with a smaller "shank" is probably my best bet.

Re: Lug nuts?
I ran a set of lugnuts on my wheels of my 91 truck, that were a 3/4" socket size and it is a lot smaller than a 13/16 socket.

Re: Lug nuts?
