They don't have to drill the rockers - there are access grommets that allow full coverage. However the doors have to be drilled. They were able to do my '19 Taco as well as our '13 Tundra rockers without drilling.

 

Sounds good. Thanks for the tip.

 

Ooooo lookie what showed up today.
Thanks @pete37 at Cornerstone!!!!

 

close Creditstone Auto Parts

 

Shit sorry Pete!! Its Covid19 and Happy Hour combined!

 

Why do you endorse the closure of Creditstone Auto Parts? Thought you liked the place


See peeps...punctuation matters

 

You work in a auto parts shop. Black Tacos. 15 minutes away, why are we not buds?

 

Ha I first thought that too when I read it, so true...dot dot dot

 

Billie 5100's with the boots for cheap...make sure you look him up!

 

I knew you were staring at my ass last time I saw you...same billies, same place...and other goodies yr and half ago

 

Oh need me some off the diff oil....and yes I was.

 

Picked up some new shoes today.


They gave me these lug nuts, but do I need the ones with the shank on the bottom?

 

another SCS F5...


most of those spline lugs have it flare out that way since they are thinner than your traditional lugs. the lugs help center them onto the hub since 90% of rims out there use standard sized holes for mounting.

 

Thanks @Shveet. I was wondering if I should be using the ones like below.

They have an extra bit under the flare.

 

I dont have the same rims as you, but these are the lugs nuts I have. With the extra bit under the flare.

Awesome new rims and tires btw!

 

oh i didn't realize there was a difference and that's what you meant... (i have the spline lugs similar to the one you just posted) where there is a bit under that bulge. not like in that first image.

Those are called an ET SPline, ET standing for extra threads for what i can find

 

Those are the same as I have for my SCS Ray 10’s

 

The best i can find is this to explain the difference "ET" for "extended Thread" or "Extra Thread"

they are both basically the same - just the ones with the longer section at the bottom of the bulge (that we all seem to use) hides in the width of the rim's metal as well...extra threading to hold the rim in place. I'd probably use the old ones @cwisema implying if they fit correctly. but functionally they appear to be the same.

 

After market rims tend to be thicker and not have as many threads sticking threw on the stud.

With out the 'Extra Threads' on mine there would not be enough threads that seat to hold it on. It is required for lots of after market rims I believe.
