I have sunraisers (check spelling :]) and I'm wondering the best wheel nuts for them? I had mags on there when I purchased the car so the wheel nuts are lug chrome nuts they work but I just thought there may be a better option as sometimes they don't seem to sit against the resest bit of the wheel the best nor hold tight all that good. Thanks guys. |

They need to fit In the countersunk part of the rim. |

Yes I know that but the ones I have fit in but seem slightly sloppy so was wondering if there are any other sorts, the wheel shops said the ones I have are it. |

Look at the recess in the wheelwhere the nut fits - does it have a flat seat or a tapered seat? Now look at the nut - does it have a matching flat or tapered base? Wheels with a tapered bottom or countersunk recess are "lug centric" and depend on the lug nuts having a matching taper to center the wheel - the matching taper gives the impression that the nuts are a close fit. Wheels with a flat bottomed recess are "hub centric" and depend on a close fit between the hub & the center bore to center the wheel - hub centric wheels use a nut with a shank and a captive washer to secure the wheel - the shank will be a sloppy fit in the hole to allow the wheel to center on the center bore. |

Sounds like you need stock sierra wheel nuts which will have a 60 degree taper. Steve. |

Red ones like these: M12X1.25 http://www.ebay.com/itm/X20-LOCKING-LUG ... 27c073d332 But you really will need red valve caps too. |
