When I changed out my steel rims on my 84, I got all my lugs / bolts / studs from T3 Technique.  High quality, reasonable price!

Remember torque on alloys is about 90ft pounds too... you don't need as much as on steel rims.

Subject: lug nuts question


hi all,


I have a 1985 tintop with 14" rims, a friend gave me a set 14" VW alloys
(from 1998 van). I would like to have a question please...


- could the lug nuts from steel rims be used on alloy rims?


thanks in advance
