OK...I went ahead and purchased a set of alloy wheels (from a '97 Tacoma) with 31x10.5x15 Bridgestone Dueler A/T tires mounted and balanced.
The wheels went on fine and the tires ride very nice (no shaking, shimmy, vibration....nothing but a nice ride).
My question concerns the lug nuts. The originals that I have are the acorn style(small and tapered at one end). When I was at the stealership getting my new center caps, I asked the guy about the lug nuts. Of course he didn't know, but he showed me the two styles that they had. One was the acorn style and the other had a kind of sleeve that looked like it may take up the little bit of extra room in the hole where the wheel fits on the wheel studs. Anyway, I went ahead and used my original lug nuts (acorn style) and like I said, the wheels appear to be lined up perfectly and the truck rides nice.
My question is (finally <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />), will the acorn style lug nuts be OK for the long haul or should I be using the other style. I just don't want to do any damage to my new (new to me) wheels by using the wrong nuts. Could some of you guys with alloys check your lug nuts for me and let me know which style you have???
As always, thanks in advance for any info.
