>>Paul Wrote - I have a set of after-market wheels, brand unknown, 14" x
5.5", that recently came off a 280Z that I would like to use on my 1969 1600
roadster. The wheels came with a shouldered lug nut so I know I can't use
stock ones. Are there lug nuts available with the correct threads that would
work or is it necessary to install new studs on the rotors and drums?

>Mike Wrote - Paul & List:  These nuts are available at Wheel Components
Inc. 1-877-453-4335 Part # 5302.  Fat shank 7/16" threads.

Paul, The lugs Mike is talking about are only for Nissan factory aluminum
wheels (not aftermarket) for the 1978~1982 280ZX. Is that what you have? Can
you take a photo of them?

Thanks Mike! I've been looking to find that company again, and forgot there
name. Web searching for "Lug Nuts" gives you 100's of hits, all wrong.
Plugging in that part# and the word "lug" just found it again for me.
