Snowflake Rims w/ Spacers

Coles5515 · May 26, 2017

Looking to 305/55/20 on 20x9 +27 offers with 2.5" Motofab front kit with 1.25" hub centric spacers to clear UCA's and a little wider stance. My question is what lug nuts should I be looking for? Not buying the OEM lugs as they are crazy priced. I know I need 14MM's just don't know what angle and length.

Anyone?

My opinion is I wouldn't use a spacer.

But eBay has oem lugs for like 50 bucks shipped

Just in case you're not aware, the 1.25 inch spacers won't clear the studs. You'll have to cut down the studs to use that size spacer.

Ive heard only the 1.75 and up will clear the studs.

This does depend on exactly what style wheels you have; some have a pocket milled into the back of the wheel, that will allow the use of smaller spacers and still clear the studs, but I'm thinking you don't have those wheels if you have the +27 offset wheels, so again they won't clear the studs with the 1.25 spacers.

If you're fine with cutting the studs, it will work. Let us know, I'd be interested on how it goes.

Eh shit! I wasn't aware of that! Yeah I am not going to be cutting the studs, especially if I want to run a stock setup in the winter.

Looks like I will be looking for a 1.75" spacer now! I want to run the GMC Sierra "Snowflake" rims on 305/55's without having to worry about rubbing. Ive seen guys run the 1/4" plate spacer but I have never had luck with those at all.

As far as lugs these are what I would like to run but there's only 1 member via searching that is running a spike style lug.

1 member here that I've seen yes but everyone and there mother has those now. They do look good but my personal opinion they have to be on a billet wheel

Those also cost double If not triple what oem lugs cost

Yeah must not be a Midwest thing yet, cause I have only seem them on a few duallys. I cannot find these cheap OEM lugs your talking about. Also I am looking for black ones....
