Hello everybody...just got my 2004 Lariat Super Crew a little over a month ago and got my new rims today. Got the 18" Black XD Monsters with the +18 offset. Now I'm just waiting for my tires....325/60/R18 Kumho KL 78's. I was wondering if I needed anything like news lug nuts for these rims or if I can just take it to the shop when the tires get here and thats it...I also have a 2" leveling kit that I need to put on first as I understand. Can't wait to get em on there and show off the pics!

Thanks guys

 

I have this kit on mine. The nuts are splined so that someone wont easily "borrow" the wheels from you: http://www.4wheelparts.com/Wheels/24...t_pn=PXA26104B

 

Hey I never thought of someone "borrowing" my wheels and tires before but that would totally suck if they did! But I'm assuming the factory lugs will work just fine right?

 

I have this kit on mine.

 

If you bought the wheels from Tire Rack, we send the necessary lug hardware needed for your truck - conical nuts 14x2 21mm fastener head. We also send the necessary 21mm extender tool so you do not scratch the finish on your new wheels by using a standard torque gun or socket. A lockset of 4 lugs (1 for each wheel) is available as well just in case someone wants to "borrow" your wheels - the set is $16.95.

 

Most aftermarket wheels need different lugnuts.

 

OEM nuts will not fit inside of the Monsters. I bought my tire pkg as a kit in 2009 and it came provided with new lugs and hub rings.

 

Yeah your gonna need new for sure.. I went with spline lug nuts when I bought my XD's (not monsters).

 

I see...they came with hub rings but no new lugs...hopefully the Auto Parts store in town carries what I need...

 

Make sure you use a set of good stainless ones.

 

Definetely will require new lugs. Give us a ring if we can help. We use Gorilla, so the quality is there. Thanks

 

Well I tried every auto parts chain in town...O'Reilly's, Advance, NAPA, Arnold, Sears...I didn't bother goin to AutoZone cause nobody else has em'...tried searching TireRack but all I get is articles about lug nuts....I guess this is what ya get for buyin your rims off eBay. The seller I got em from says he'll send me an invoice for a kit...never thought lug nuts would be so hard to come across!!! (Frustrated)

 

At least I got the leveling kit on tonight...that made me happy
