Open End Lug Nuts for RTR Wheels

[Scott]

Have been looking at RTR wheels, but I have 3" wheel studs on my car and would need open ended lug nuts. Are they available in 1/2-20 for RTR wheels? I am sure the Ford Racing 1/2-20's will not fit.

I picked up some 17mm lug nuts off a website. They're perfect for wheels like RTR's or Niche's that have small lug opening because the 17mm head has a smaller sized socket (obviously) and doesn't scratch everything up. I'm trying to find the website right now

Disclaimer, ^ those are an example, IDK if they will actually work.

I placed an order for these - Gorilla Automotive 20083SD Small Diameter Acorn Open End Chrome 5 Lug Kit (1/2" Thread Size) - Pack of 20. Hopefully they will do the trick.

Really Scott?
The car looks so good with race stars and after all the work to narrow the rear end you could fit so many cooler wheels with a better offset (to give deeper dish)
My ford racing 302s wheels will be forsale next spring to get away from the look everyone has

It's all about options Nick. Car will look lower with 19" wheels (fender lip in relation to rim) and I want to try black on the red car. I am keeping the Race Stars and 07-09 SVT 18" rims I have.

Vorshlag motorsports also sells 17mm open ended lugs 1/2-20.
