Ron,


From what I know they are definitely different. Not a good idea to use
the bolts from the steel wheel on the Alloy.

Hey Y'all,
I just jacked up the '87 Westy, pumped to mount my new (to me) factory
alloy wheels when I had a horrible thought-do the stock 14" steel &
alloy wheels use the same lug bolts?? I don't want to take a chance on
screwing something up if the head taper or something is different. I'm
waiting for a HALT or GO AHEAD! from the immense wisdom of the list.
Thanks, Ron Komoroski
