lug nuts
I just purchased a set of 2017 18" dealer takeoff wheels and tires on Ebay, to replace the 17" steelies on my 2008 F250, and am checking to see if the lug nuts I have will work with the new wheels. Poked around on the web and couldn't find anything that would make me think they wouldn't work, but figured I would ask. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Brian

the stock lug nuts have a washer on the end that spins so yes it would work. dont over torque them since aluminum wheels give way easier than steel and the nut imprint gets deeper each rotation.
if you have the time, get some PVC spacers they are about 6mil thick and prevent the rims from binding to the hub due to galvenetic corrosion.

Would such a thick spacer compromise the wheel to hub interference on those hub centric wheels?
