Using the OEM lug nuts on non hubcentric spacers won't work as there is nothing to center the rim on and using conical seat nuts on OEM rims may or may not be a good mix as the rims are not designed for that type of nut and don't have a matching conical surface for the nuts to mate to.
Thanks for the concern. I'm Not going to be using them with OEM wheels though. They will be used with my lug centric wheels that are on the truck now.

All of the '04 King Ranch '04 18" rims I have seen previously had the inside of the spoke pocket holes painted that tan/beige color that was common on the KR trucks, do these look like that tan/beige or do they look silver/grey to you? The seller doesn't show the center caps, so they could be KRs or maybe Lariats, my Lariats have silver painted pockets. If these were closer and they prove to be silver I would buy them in a minute.

Wheel from the cl ad.

Regardless of the paint, I would be them if they were closer to me.

They look silver to me. They also appear to have a few scratches but still $400...and pretty good tires as well.

Judging from the cl pictures I think they are silver too and the scratches look to be about equal to what mine looked like when I bought them (with less tire for $600!).
I need to go home and take one of mine off and see if it actually FITS in the spare tire spot. I wish I wasn't working 12hrs every day, I need some time off! Ugh!

Exactly 521 weeks from now is the goal, but I am willing to go early if what I have put away makes enough new friends in the market.
