Help Lug Nuts

Hey,
I have a set of Ronal's but no Lug nuts for them. My question is, does anyone know what type of lugs I can use with these wheels? The stock wheel lugs I have right now are a bit to short and I would like to get these new wheels on soon so any help is appreciated thanks,
Mike

Are there any other mercedes lug nuts that I could use? My friend suggested that the 15 hole rims might have longer lugs that would work.

They're gonna LOVE you. I guess thats why its called a pick and pull, but if I wanted the wheels and someone took the lugs... we won't go there.

62bhp,

I have Ronal wheels on a '79 300SD and I use the longer bolts (not nuts) that are standard MB use on the Buntcake (alloy) wheels used on the 300SDs.

The lug bolts are very expensive at dealer, maybe $8 each. Less at online parts houses, even less at a junkyard.

You may be able to measure the length you need. Take into consideration offset and ball seat or taper. Measure bolt, 12mm probably, or 14mm 1.50 thread, probably, then shank length. Changed rims on the SD. I bolted on a stock rim, took measurements, then bolted on new rim, more measurements, went from there. Had to get new bolts and spacers.
