I have a '67 Sprite with a set of old Appliance slotted mag wheels. I'm looking for lug nuts. 5 would work, 16 would be great! It's the standard 3/8x24 thread, but the shank needs to be 1/2" outside diameter. Most everything out there is wider. Moss, Victoria, Mini Mania and yes, The Guy ON E-Bay has the wider version. Probably to fit current Minilites, etc.
The nuts that I have use a 5/8" socket and are stamped Spitfire, Sprite, Midget on the sides.
I guess I could drill the holes larger in the Mags, but I really don't want to do that as they're original.
Checked a couple of classic restorer shops nearby and a tire guy that's been in business since the 60's. No luck.
Suggestions?
