Good find.

 

but they don't have the extended shank. Isn't that the part that is necessary?

 

yes my question is that is the spline type of nut really provide any other benefit than a theft deterant? Or are they actually skinnier? Cuz i'm looking into the pro comp 7089's and i don't have to worry about them being stolen around here haha i just need an ET nut so would the regulat gorilla et's be fine? or would i need the et spline drives??

 

bump

 

I am running that exact setup - ProComp 7089's and Gorilla E/T Spline Drive lugs (chrome) and they blend into the wheel pretty well, you don't notice them at all.

To answer your question, I think you need the spline drive lugs so you can get the socket in to tighten the lugs without scratching your new wheels. I haven't had any problems with them.

 

so would the ones in this link be the correct ones? even tho their listed under the first gen rims?

 

I think as long as you have the thin walled socket, the lugs can be tightened fine.

 

"To answer your question, I think you need the spline drive lugs so you can get the socket in to tighten the lugs without scratching your new wheels. I haven't had any problems with them. "

Or BUY a name brand thin-wall socket for your current lug nuts .....I did this the minute my '02 with aluminum wheels hit my driveway......that socket and 1/2" drive breaker bar are for one purpose...


Good luck on whatever you do.....and pictures when done.....
