Where did you get your conversion. I know gearworks makes wheels studs that you can do the conversion on your own, which I was going to do. Also what thread pitch did you get? Sites say use 12mm x 1.5 for 4 lug and 14mm x 1.5 for 5 lug.

You don't have to tell me twice. 3 times in a row different days at the cerritos meet when you bent over I saw your pink thong. Then I was like eighter he loves pink or doesn't change his underwear....I guess it was the pink.

yeah its 12x1.5 I got the WORK lug nuts from my cousin, He got them from WORK USA. I had Serge over at Hyevon do the conversion for me, he had all the studs there. Had to run 60mm up front and 50mm in back because of the spacers.

What size spacers you running? I wish my new wheels were cone seated instead of ball seated so i can get some nice lugs I've been searching around and gorilla and excalibur only really makes some type of lugs with a ball seat. Maybe I'll just buy a set of the chrome ones and anodize them with the left over duplicolor paint I have.
