So I just got my new wheels which are the US Mag
17x10's
lug nut:
I did a test fit with just the rim before taking them down to get tires (BFG AT 35x12.5x17) added and they fit very similar to what the truck had (Weld 16.5x9.5) Similar offset. A tiny bit wider (5mm) but they only offer 1 size so that made my decision a lot easier.
The problem I had is my lug nuts are old and gross, but also I can't get a socket in the hole to tighten them. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe the locking style to protect my investment a little.
Something like these - or is this cheap stuff that I'll end up regretting?
