Unilug (or Universal Lug) wheels explained once and for all with my Astro Supremes!

Unilug wheels are not super common today but if you come across one in the wild here's what you need to know.
1. They take special lugs
2. They take special washers
3. They can be a little annoying to bolt up
4. In the case of these Astro Supremes, they're gangster.

i have some cragars that have a vibration over 60mph. I think it's the uni-lugs. I'll say this, i passed on a bunch because they were uni-lug. It may save the manufacturer money, but it's costing them sales imo.

Everytime

Where did you get the lugs/washers?
I need some for my truespokes. Really tough to find, but if you’re using a gm bolt pattern I figured it would be the same for my Elco. Thanks in advance!

[@stance_is_everything]

I got them from a shop called Performance Improvements. They've ceased operation but I can try and find a SKU for you!

[@carlosalonso4809]

@@stance_is_everything if you can, that would help!

Beautiful wheels but these type of wheels is very hard to balance because they are not hub centric

[@stance_is_everything]

For sure, I don't even know where I will get em balanced yet. Probably someone old...

[@user-ji8ls9dr9f]

One of my favorite wheels.

[@chadmiller6129]

Those are absolutely the wrong lug nuts to use. The ones you are using have a conical seat and thats not what you want

[@stance_is_everything]

Chad that's weird because they came as a set? The washers have a bevel so I don't think flat shank nuts would work.
I'll have to go take another look at them.
