R56 Can't find 14x1.5 lug nuts
Can't find 14x1.5 lug nuts
So I'm very much thinking about getting the WMW wheel stud kit but I can't find any reputable lug nuts in 14x1.5, all I keep finding is 12x1.5 either want to get blue since my car is blue or black bolts. Help!!!
P.s. how big of a spacer can you run on this set? http://www.waymotorworks.com/m14x1.2...-stud-kit.html

We have the 14 to 12mm stud conversion set. What do you mean by "reputable" lug nut? We just run a 5mm spacer up front but you could easily run much much more. Probably as much spacer as you would ever want to. 20mm should be easily doable.
I use a 15mm spacer with the WMW 14 to 12 stud kit. I do have Wilwood rotors that might be slightly different thickness than OEM rotors. With the 15mm spacers the aluminum lug nuts fit perfect with the stud thread right at the end of the nut.
RAD USA (aka Otis) has many nuts:

I use Match Schnell 17mm lug nuts from EAS. Very reputable company here in SoCal and have these on my stud conversion kit because I wasn't a huge fan of the dumb keyed Muteki nuts that Way has optioned on their page.

Can either be for 12x1.5 or for 14x1.25. Call and they can ship them out for you.

Here you go. 14mm x 1.50. Took me a while to find them for my other car.

I have Way's http://www.waymotorworks.com/m14x1.2...-stud-kit.html which coverts to 14x1.5 along with the "dumb keyed Muteki nuts". What I don't like is the rust that forms inside the open nut. So, I searched and this is some of what I found:
Gorilla Wheel Lock Systems 71641NBC
Gorilla Lug Nuts 91147BC
Black Closed-End Bulge Acorn Wheel/Lug Nuts, M14x1.5, 19mm Hex, Qty 25
Muteki Lug Nuts - Black Closed Ended
The Muteki has this warning which gives me pause:
NOTE: LUG NUTS ARE MADE WITH TAPERED BOTTOMS SPECIFICALLY FOR AFTERMARKET WHEELS. DO NOT USE THESE TUNER LUGS FOR YOUR FACTORY WHEELS. WE NO LONGER ACCEPT RETURNS ON LUG NUTS FROM CUSTOMERS WHO ATTEMPT TO USE THEM ON FACTORY WHEELS. THESE LUGS ALSO DO NOT FIT ON SPECIAL WHEELS THAT REQUIRE INVERTED LUGS. WE WILL ALSO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS FROM CUSTOMERS THAT TRY TO USE THEM FOR THESE TYPES OF WHEELS.
I have OEM R119 16” 6-Star Twin Spoke wheels with 12mm front/15mm rear spacers. Will I have any problem with any of these nuts? The Muteki's??? especially since I already have Muteki open nuts???
Oh, Horizon BLueN18, I hoped I helped with your spacer question.
