Stock lug nuts

[xraymankb]

Anyone besides me notice how these things are cheaply made. Had the Revos put on and now I have 4 nuts missing the caps off of them.
they just seem to be falling off. anyone else have this problem. ](*,)

not yet, --knocks on wood--

I replaced all of them last year because they stretched so much after about 6 or 7 times. I put on solid ones instead of the capped crap.

 

[yoda13]

man, now I am going to have to go play closer attention to those things. ](*,)

Yea I heard of this happening before. Just another part they cheaped out on. #-o

I am actually looking at a set of McGaurds for all my wheels.

That's what I was asking myself. I replaced 5 of em with locks

Oh yes, they're capped...I guess DCX in their INFINITE wisdom =D> didn't feel the need to put solid ones on so I guess I have to get them myself. I figure after installing my lift I'll have 3 or 4 more caps come off.

Wheel studs

The bolts keep rusting on mine!

I had by read pads replaced 4 months ago and 2 bolts broke off on one wheel.

I had my tires rotated and ALL 5 bolts broke on one front wheel. The other front broke only 3!


Anyone else have this problem?

I have one cap that fell off. The funny thing is, I've never touched that wheel and the cap is gone. I was hoping to get some aftermarket wheels and re-use them, now I know I need to buy some new lugs.

 

[SRotblat]

where are you all finding solid lugs? I searched a while back when one of mine broke but couldnt find anyone selling them. ](*,)

Got mine at Walmart drunk.gif

 

[SRotblat]

do you recall the specifics of the lugs? ie size of the threads etc?

 

[TRAILN]

I don't remember but there usually is a chart in the same area of the store.

If you give me a number I prolly can tell you if that the one. (1/2" I think)

 

[SRotblat]

what about brand -- I've had poor luck with the wal-marts in my area not stocking the stuff others do.

 

[SRotblat]

been looking and still not finding anything

I'm in need of 5 lugs and the dealer wants just over 7 bucks a pop smashfreakB.gif

I need to find the brand that people have used for solid replacements and where to buy them. As stated above the walmarts I've checked say they do not stock lugnuts ](*,)

 

[SRotblat]

anyone know the thread size for the OE lugs?? I need to know to order new ones....

Nuts

DC and other manufacturers have been using the cheaper "capped" lug nuts for years.
