2006 rims, on a 72 chevy,Specail Lugs for Caps?
Do I need specail lug nuts for the caps? my Brother works at a tire shop, says the 72 is is 9/16 and the newer lug nuts are metric and will not work without stripping the stud or the lug nut. Has anyone purchased any of these lugnuts, and does anyone have a source?

I know this used to be a big deal with S10 trucks when folks put on the vette ralley wheels. The bevel on the edge of the lug nut has changed over the years when they went from IPS to metric.
I thought some company had come out with a conversion style lug nut.
