Anyone know of a place with the 35mm length in gunmental in stock? Evasive is sold out...

Picked up some Muteki SR48 but they're too long and extend beyond the face of the wheel (TR C3 17x9 63)

Related Question for the experts: Can/should I use one of these taper to cone seat adapter washers to use my Rays Duralugs with my ap2 v3 wheels? Like these: Felgen Meister Conical to Ball Seat Conversion Washers - FM-Wheels.com

If it were me, I'd use my OEM lug nuts on my OEM wheels and my RAYS Duralumin on my Volks. I did that for years.

If you want some black OEM style lug nuts they're easy to find. The washers don't seem ideal and introduce a fail point or at least another layer of unnecessary equipment.

Alloy? Or, steel?
I see black steel OEM lug nuts out there, (Black spec is for CR I assume). I could get a set of those - and I may. But, are there alloy lugs with spherical seats like OEM?

I would imagine there are ball seat alloys out there.

Black CR lugs are ball seat and cannot be used with tapered seat wheels like volks.

You cannot use duralugs with oem wheels unless you want to destroy the lugs and the studs.

Yup, I understand. I'm trying to source new alloy lugs with ball seats for use with OEM ap2 v3 wheels. No luck so far.

Could not find them in 12 x 1.5 though.

Just go with steel, I'll never tell.
