SPIKE LUG NUTS...OUCH!!!

[glorydays24]

I was wondering if one of our great vendors could make these. I thought they would look great on my "SLUMLORD".



If anyone want's to attempt this, feel free to let me know here, or pm me.

Thanx, Big John

Great Minds think alike John. I was going to have some of those made for myself. I was planning on talking to my micro machinist extraordinaire, also know as tc1cat (Lynn) about these next week.

Let ya know what he says.

Thank you Mike, and I thought I would be an original lol.
I was on chrome shop mafia last night going through the gallery pic's, and I saw these and thought WOW, that would be soooooo cooooool.

Thanx again, Big John

you need a screw machine for those how would you tighten them ? best to make them as caps like the real 1's

Steve, I thought about that myself. I was thinking of the caps, or at the base of the spike, have it to where it would be a hex shape for a wrench. Just a thought. As long as they stay on, I wouldn't really care either way.

I'm on the bandwagon! These would be an awesome addition to any rig...especially a custom one.

Yeah Steve and I have talked this one over already and have not found a good solution to this as I am in need of some for the front of my black truck to match the 1:1 Caps would be n ice if you don't plan to drive it as how will you keep them on so they wont fall off??

someone was selling some in the past
i ordered some, but they never arrived
the ones i ordered you inserted studs into the hub on the truck then threaded these on the studs
i'm still in need of a set for 2 custom trucks
also wanting the acorn style

I just don't see them being cheap . I got the pic in my head on how to do it . but to do them by hand is insane . as for caps , it's not really a good idea as our screws come from over seas from different countries , I have notice different head thicknesses the best would be to use ss hex rod . I'm just not set up to do it and have enough on my plate .

Well if it can't be done because of cost, and the pain it would take to make these, I understand.
And i'm no worse off than I am now...But it is a cool idea.
