what size are the lugnut threads? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #1064 5 posts Started by 96cel_John
i just got my wheels in today. the problem is the lugs that came with the wheels don't fit around the thread. i put my stock lugs on for now. they fit good but i want new ones since i paid for them. does anyone know what the thread #'s are for a 96 ST? the ones they gave me are 12x1.5

the 12x1.5 doesn't fit?? it supposed to....i just got new rims too and am going to get the lug nuts next week. i would use my old ones but they're kinda rusty. >frown.gif> plus im gonna have to get the smaller outside diameter (acorn) nuts cuz the rim hole isn't so big >confused.gif>
well the 12x1.5 goes on about 2 rotations, then it starts to strip the thread. the stock ones go on with no problem though. >confused.gif>
...someone here has to know the size...i can't return the ones i have now until i know the size, so could someone tell me the right size?
haha, the 12x1.5's do fit.

the place actually sent 12x1.25 (it said it right on the lug, i just never bothered to look until now). on the invoice it said 12x1.5 though. theyre sending me the new ones next week.


question: will using the stock lugs do any harm?
