RR 20" Wheel Swap and Lug Sizing - from SC to Sport Rim
My Rover is aging into a more off-road focused machine, and as part of the transition is going from RR Full-Size Rims (LR010666/017926) to Rims from the RR Sport (LR017281/028938), each similar vintage (2009-2012 or so). Would appreciate thoughts concerning the ideal lugs for the new rims and any similar experiences.
At least one site lists the OEM Lug Nuts as LR068126 and many list the same for both these models: 14/1.5, spec profile 14mm bolt 23mm shank. So that seems to indicate same lugs would work for each.
But I need new lugs and need to go black for the new rims, and am thinking aftermarket - are any decent or all crap?
Perhaps go with a bit longer head so it is easier to get at/not seated as deep in the hole?
Posted some photos here, look forward to your thoughts. 2008 HSE Current Rim Lug New Sport Rim with Lug dropped in.
Also - will be selling the current rims, they currently have a peeling PVD finish.
I have used these they are starting to show a touch of rust on the black where the impact beat them up a bit. Solid lug nuts however that do not have the silly cover on them.
Thank you very much! I was actually looking at these or very similar from same company online, so thank you for confirming the fit and quality.
BTW, why the three LR3s? Spare parts?
