(18" 2000) Cobra R rims, what lugnuts?( very tight fit)

[Cobra8urZ06]

I want to run (18" 2000) Cobra R rims on my 03. I have the rims, but the factory lugs won't work with the rims as I can't get the socket on the lug as the socket wall is too thick.

I need a a lugnut with like a key on the end of it as I can't get the socket on. What did everyone else use for lugnuts?

I use 95 Cobra R rims for track rims but I believe a spark plug socket( what I use when there is a tight clearance) or just a plain thin wall deep 13/64 socket should do the trick.

Impact sockets are way thick, I hand loosen with the thin wall and zing em the rest of the way off with the air wrench.:beer:

Thin wall socket is still too thick to fit between the lugnut and the sidewall inside the lugnut hole of the rim.

for those running this rim, what lugnut did you go with?
