Stoffregen Motorsports Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 I think most MFG's use acorn style lug nuts nowadays. The rims seem to be sitting flush against the brake drum with the lug nuts on and nothing seems to be binding. But to clarify if the rim did not fit right would it be obvious? If the mounting surface of the wheel is sitting flush (touching) the brake drum, it sounds like it fits. Jack it up and spin the tire. Does it spin true? 1 Quote Link to comment
