lug nut problem
im mounting my new weld evo bc-10 rims and im having a little problem. the drivers side went on fine torqued down and all. i get to the passenger side and im having a problem. weld sent me the lugs (spline drive 12mm x 1.5). when im trying to tighten 2 lugs on the passenger side rear i have 2 lugs that are bottoming out on the studs they get a little tight and you cant tighten them any more and when you take the lug off you can see where the stud is hitting the inside top of the lug. i measured the studs and the 2 are slightly longer. what should i do just grind those 2 studs down a little so that the lugs can tighten?. has this happened to anyone else? thanx brad

I'd recommend getting studs that fit properly. JMO.
