I am picking up a set of 5 original equipment TR8 alloy wheels for my wedge tomorrow, but I cant seem to find info on the lug nut size for the alloy wheels.
It looks like the studs themselves are 12mm x 1.5 thread pitch (but that's not 100% for sure either) which is a more or less standard wheel stud size but what is the shank diameter for going through the wheel? what is the length of a stock alloy wheel lug nut for a wedge, and what thickness gall washer did they use by default?
the 13$ per nut price the big3 are charging is rather atrocious, but it should be relatively simple to find lug nuts I can use elsewhere for FAR less money, but I cant find the dimensions needed listed anywhere, not in my TR7 Haynes or my TR7 Bentley manual, nor in any of the original documentation.
Jegs and other places carry a ton of various sizes for much less $$$
