lug nut clearance for extended studs... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

sw20>>s14 · 08-14-2007, 02:13 AM

thinking about buying a decent set of lug nuts...i have 60mm extended studs and was wondering which ones clear them...ive asked many vendors and distributors trying to find out how much depth some brands have, but with no responses...im mainly considering:

-work RS (lug and locks: closed ended)
-volk ext. (lug and locks: closed ended)
-5zigen proracers (lug: open ended / locks: closed ended)
-black racing (lug: open ended / locks: closed ended)

anyone know if any of these will clear extended studs? i am aware that there are a few ones that are all open (greddy, work RS-Z, etc.), but i would like a lock (not like it matters as much now a days, but still)...

i dont think you understood my question...i know what size and pitch to get...my main concern is whether or not my studs will be longer that the nut body itself (for the ones i listed having closed ended)...

50 million ppl are gonna have muteki/gorilla style keys...25 million ppl will have work/volk/etc keys...anything to shave down the probability...plus japanese aftermarket would probably my last choice for security because im assuming they wont have mcgards long enough to clear my studs...so anything helps...

no one has experience? its as simple as measuring the lugs, i know, but no vendor has been able to tell me any specs...so im not dropping $110+ on lugs that may or may not fit only to resell them here and be lowballed by a kid for $5 and half a pack of stale reds that they stole from their brother whos in college...

uh, you never asked ME

-work RS (lug and locks: closed ended)
-volk ext. (lug and locks: closed ended)
-5zigen proracers (lug: open ended / locks: closed ended)
-black racing (lug: open ended / locks: closed ended)

none of the above clears

DONE

couldve saved you a post

if you really want, just give me the length that the stud sticks out and ill go measure the lugs

but then again....you never asked me to begin with....sigh i see how it is!

ixi · 08-14-2007, 06:17 PM

Haha

Hangtite, lol u ass

Just get some opens, and then buy an open ended lock from Gorilla or McGard or something

Locks ain't gonna do nothing, don't daily your car and keep in a garage and you'll be fine

so the closed ended "lock" nut clears your 50mm studs? hmmm...wonder if theyll clear my 60s...

see, i dont know anymore...ill have to ask loggy log for some measurements...

n240sxfnatic · 08-15-2007, 09:43 AM

yea but im runnin 50mm on both so I highly doubt it would work on 60mm with the locking closed ended
