Problem with Advan SA3's
Anyone here used advan SA3's? the center cap/cover has the lugs set below the rest of the wheel(like stock 240sx tear drops) EXCEPT the lugs are right near the wall/lip of that area so fitting a socket wrench or any wrench in between the lug nut and the wall seems impossible, at first I thought a very thin socket would work but with only like a 2mm space i know for sure it won't. Has anyone else had this problem? My friends believe it would take a 19mm lug in all my hubs and then very small 19mm lug nuts and maybe I could do it, but even then I highly doubt it. I know volk has an interested lug nut that screws onto the lug but instead of using a wrench you use the thing that you plug the socket onto(so its like doing the opposite). I don't really know how to describe it but if anyone knows anything about those particular advans it would be helpful.
any body deal with advan in Japan a lot? maybe advan makes a special lug nut...idk.....

if that works, your the man! :-D imma go check with some of my friends and see what they think, do you think I will still have to change my lugs to fit those gorilla lug nuts or will it work with my current stock 240sx lugs? I really don't want to change to hondas little 19mm lug crap.

just make sure you get lugs with a 12x 1.25 thread pitch, thats all you need, gorrilla makes a set, i have yet to pick some up, but all you need to make sure on those is that they are 12x1.25.
