    I just bought some 3/4" alu wheel spacers but they dont have any Lugs installed.

    Where do I purchase lugs and how do I install them? Will they be specific to the spacers I have or are all lugs universal? Thanks!

    They're missing the threaded studs. Send them back and have threaded studs placed in them.

    Remember, you get what you paid for.

    The weird thing is, the holes are not threaded. I found the vendor and will contact him when I can.

    Are you sure you want to accept responsibility for mounting threaded lugs? Not that it's THAT big of a deal, but one wrong turn (no pun intended) can hamper the ingretity of the part.

    are these supposed to have studs in them?? like do you just put the spacer over te studs on your truck already and put your tires on and tighten it down with te lugs on your tire?

    do you know what i mean?
