    Amazon why you disappoint..

    Ordered these:

    07035a5af0a3af94268e82c8ef235943_c3874e22a96ba315f170e9541b3a683d6f89c63a.jpg

    Got these:

    adf42e234e1a8e76708fcfd9cc58864b_c8573ddab270d64c0c505fb6a9861fed64b38984.jpg

    At least the covers I ordered are correct:

    367b08cfef0134607253181b45654c65_df4e8accd02bba2c81287fa2d70a7e171c271381.jpg

    Plan is to return these and get what I ordered or just go with Cali raised 2x2 pods.

    I don't know if it's the company in general; just the rep that was reaching out to people on TW.

    Bingo. I products were/are great and I have definitely put them through their paces (especially the 30" LED bar). Just rinsed it off with warm water and all the dirt washed away..cleaned up so good I didn't want to sell it to be honest.

    Said LED bar:

    3ee2e01d4b7b3145cf1847ff122a0269_d69c6816326bfca339ef1551ff5f5e6116c0daa7.jpg

    But after he was unreachable to his customers interested in the product, and the lack of communication and hand off to another rep, I was over it.

    I still think I'm one of the only people he really told what was going on at the time.

    Taper towards spacer. There's a tapered seat in the counterbore which accepts the taper on the lugnut

    Factory lugs do not have a taper that seats. They have integral washers built in to the lugnut, and the wheel is hub-centric not lug-centric. Typically lug-centric wheels use acorn style lugnuts.

    They might physically have a taper on the end, but the lugnuts each fit in a machined bore and the washered shoulder of the stock lug it what bears the load developed in the fastener.
