Default Re: Chevelle ss wheel lug nuts

Ditto what Bill said. Your safety isn't worth the correctness of appearance. The repop lug nuts are only good for perfect rims with low-perf applications. The originals are just a bit better. My brother totaled his Chevelle in 1971 when the lug nuts failed on his Super Sport Chevelle.

Put the good lug nuts one and forget the critics. Just like upgrading your car to disc brakes or a dual master cylinder. Safety trumps originality here.

Just my $.02 worth.
