I'm not sure how much spacing I'm going to need with the new wheels with my 5 lug conversion. I might want to get what might be longer than needed wheel lugs and would then have to use steel lug nuts. Would the steel lug nuts be a problem?

Porsche put steel lug bolts against stock 914/4 alloy wheels. And AFAIK, Porsche is the only company who ever used aluminum lug nuts. I'd say go ahead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
