Lug nuts

Post by RaspMetalicMX3SE »

I was wondering if there is a certain size lug nut that we are supposed to use on our cars for example 12mmX1.50, 12mmX1.75 14mm etc.

Actually the lug nuts can be different sizes, mostly depending on your rims. For instance, my rims have to have special "tuner" lugs that are much smaller in outer diameter than normal lugs. The inside diameter (where the threads are) is the same.

He was talking about thread pitch, which does NOT change.
