911 aluminum closed end lug nuts are not to be used on steel wheels. Correct?

the radii of the part of steel and aluminum lug-nuts that bears on the wheel are the same. Try it, if you can run a closed alum lug nut down and bring it to torque youll be fine. Im not sure if the "grip" or thickness of an lum wheel vs a steel wheel is differnent
However track car aluminum lug nuts=bad |
