Re: Lug nuts on 1969 Nova SS wheels
Thanks MR70..Those are the ones I have, however my front wheel has come loose because the nuts have worn through the wheel holes. I purchased some aftermarket ones last year. The shank was approx. 1/8 in shorter on those. May have been the cause. If I look in the Classic Industries catalog the lug nuts they show for 69 SS wheels do not look at all like the ones you our I have. I'll remove the wheel tomorrow but it looks like I might be looking for a new SS wheel if its too badly damaged.
Again thanks for posting the pic! Martin |

Re: Lug nuts on 1969 Nova SS wheels
Martin...GM makes a lug nut for the SS wheels that has a larger taper where it meets the wheel. They are designed to be used when the factory hole has been enlarged from over tightning. I have a set and they seem to work fine. I can give you a part number if you are interested in them.

Tony,
Thanks for the tip...Went to Carquest this morning and found the nuts..They work great..Wheel is damaged slightly but this fixed my problem. Bought a set for each wheel. Regards, Martin |
