Eagle Alloy 028 lug help - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Drift420sx · 09-23-2012, 10:17 PM

Just picked up eagle alloy 028 rims 4x114.3 15x8 with -30 offset and i cant find the lug nuts that fit the oval uni-lug holes. I know I have to get mag style lug nuts but I don't know where to get some that fit. I've gone down to my local tire shops and the lugs they give me don't fit in the outer part of the ovaled hole.

do you know anywhere they still sell thesee ?

LOUD240 · 10-29-2012, 07:48 PM

Thats not the way they come from the wheel mfg , somebody has ovaled the lug holes out ,Just use a mag seat lug w/ washer, but your going to have to get a set of Hub centric rings since the wheel is not lug centric anymore . Call Excaliber wheel acc in Ontario they will have the lugs

Drift420sx · 10-30-2012, 06:05 PM

Nowhere sells these rims. And they do come with oval holes. I cant find the right mag lug nut. The diameter of the shanks is too big for the hole

uriel123 · 10-30-2012, 06:27 PM

Would you be willing to sell them ? I want them so bad !

zerodameaon · 10-30-2012, 10:49 PM

Those would need the hubcentric rings and flat lugnuts not tapered type. Try these, Summit Racing Lug Nuts 12mm x 1.25 .685" Shank Dia Zinc Set of 24 on eBay!

What are these rims going on? If its a S13, are you able to get these on with just pulling your fenders? I have a set and just looking at it, it seems the only way to get them to not scrape is with overfenders.

Because those rims are like 15 to 20 years old and the only way lug holes get ovaled out like that, is someone redrilling them wrong. Trust me I manufactured wheels for years an years

Yes a s13. I do plan on pulling the fenders and adding camber. What size tire r u getting?

hxckid213 · 11-01-2012, 04:46 PM

mag shanks is the lugs u need. it looks like someone used the wrong lugs and the wheels was somehow moving when rolling and it made a oval shape? go to pepboys they sell some shanks that are skinny , maybe those will fit.

this are the ones you need

Those wheels are junk.

They will also look and fit terribly on an S-chassis.

Sorry.

zerodameaon · 11-01-2012, 11:08 PM

If you do it right they look great, but you either love it or hate it.

Personally that looks good, and amazing vs herrafrush. (Wheel fitment not the rest of the car)

Also I am just going with 30mm overfenders, I found some for a great price at a shop in Santa Rosa. I was planing 205/60s but I am opposed to a lot of camber and I think that's where things were going south.

In case you have not seen it.

they are like that. i had a set of them and they are ovaled as well.

to the op. you can go to any wheel shop that sells insert type lug nuts. any tapered bottom wont work with this. trust me.

Agreed.... I currently have a 15x8 -30 set aswell and the holes are ovaled aswell. Louds manufacturing of wheels obviously came pong after these wheels production because there are many us made wheels from that time period w the same thing. For anyone intetested my set is for sale haha
