Well considering that is what Paul does for a living and honestly it would almost be more hassle than it worth for the 15 bucks or so I would get for them I would recommend going to him first. If you cannot find them anywhere else I would be willing to help out is what I am saying you arent getting in my way. I dont part rovers for money, just happened to grab all the decent lug nuts I could get my hands on at the scrapyard cuz I paid like .50 a piece or something..

FWIW I have a set of 10 D1 lug nuts with the caps removed. They take a 15/16" socket. PM me if anyone's interested.

Just so everyone is awar5e, the DI uses one size and the DII uses a totally different size, so the variant they came off of matters.

The DII is smaller diameter and a different thread pitch, just to let you new guys know.

Also, it is a big jump from needing 6 lugs to needing this thing gone ASAP. What is up?

An aside, one garage ruined all 20 of my lug nuts, I went thru hell trying to find replacements at a good price. One recycler on the West Coast first sent me 20 DII lugs, then 20 DI lugs but most were somewhat messed up only about 8 good ones in that group, so I finally found out about the solid lugs.

On the third try, they sent me 20 of the solid RR lugs and I absolutely would not use any others on my DI.
