Default Solid lug nuts

Anyone know of solid lug nuts in 27mm wrench size for stock wheels? Found LA Wheel but theirs are 11/16 and some eBay but 22mm.

The LA wheel nuts are 1 1/16", which is 26.9875mm. You'll be fine using a 27mm socket on them.

Haha, I thought the guy went and measured. He could not read? How do you know this? If true, I’ll order. I need 7 as I already had 13 new solid lugs

I don't for certain, and you should definitely confirm, but a visual inspection of the lugs on their website show that the nut is about the same thickness as the shank extension, which is true for the 27mm stock lugs. They're certainly not over a third of an inch narrower.

I thought the same. 11/16 is tiny

11/16 sure looks a lot like 1 1/16 without a space between

someone goofed on typing it probably

Update: I ordered the lugs from L.A. Wheel and Tire. Confirming they are 27mm and solid with chrome. What an upgrade from the capped lugs from LR.
