FedEx dropped off my 22" Eagle 026s w/ 305/45 tires today, all balanced, ready to roll. It's supposed to finally be pretty nice this weekend so I was excited to throw 'em on...except the place forgot to send my lugs/locking lugs So I sent an email to them, but now it'll probably be next weekend until they go on.

 

Dude That Sucks.....

 

do the old lugs go bad when you take them off? Rock some rusty **** for a week, thats all

 

I got Escalade wheels now, which use the short GM lugs, I don't think they'd work w/ these wheels...they are exposed lug and the opening is really deep. I think I need some long conical ones or something.

 

The stock lug nuts are probably to big in diameter to fit in the hole of the wheels.
That sucks to have to wait for the wheels, and then find out they didn't ship the lug nuts with em.

 

That does suck, me and my stockers feel terrible.

just messin wit ya

 

Yea you cant use the stockers...i have the 026's...hell you cant even use a standard socket...gotta use one with a smaller diameter

 

Slightly off topic, does this place have locking lugs that would work with stock wheels, under-the-cap?

 

Yeah, the holes look tiny...but, all is not lost. Talked to the co., the lugs were shipped in a diff. box and should be here tomorow. These ***** are heavy, weighed 88lbs on the trusty bathroom scale. I'll weigh the 17" Escalades w/ 265/70s for comparison. Nice thing is, there's so much room between the spokes I can reach in there and clean the inside of the rim when it gets dirty. I'll post some pics when I get them on...probably going to decrank the front an inch and pull the blocks in the rear (sitting at 37 front/38.25 rear now) depending on clearance.

EDIT: not sure Magnetized...but someones gotta make locking ones for factory wheels w/ caps like SS, Esky wheels, etc.

 

hmmm thats weird they usually just send you 3 wheels one week and then the other wheel the next week
