    I run the same design, but ProComp brand (since I needed them fast, I bought local).

    The difference between the two is the ET or Extended Thread portion of the lug nut (those referenced in my link have the ET, those in your link don't).

    You can see the extended shank below the acorn bit, this extra bit of threaded shank helps secure aftermarket wheels to the wheel studs better. The reason this is a thing is that the increase backspacing of the aftermarket wheel pushes the lug nut outward on the studs leaving the wheel being held on by fewer threads. The longer ET nuts compensate for this and recovers some use of more threads on the stud, aka results in more secure wheel with less chance of lug nuts backing off.

    I'm experiencing slight rubbing @ around half turn...clear at full turn.

    I plan on removing the factory flaps tomorrow and alignment with additional positive castor. We will see...

    Eventually I will lift the truck, but not much. Maybe...1 to 1.5 inches.

    Open to any advice or suggestions.
