I bought the 17 inch Bullit style wheels with my kit last Feb. I know they don't come with lug nuts. Somebody mentions and specific style of lug nut and size. I think it was style was "acorn" ...does anybody have any idea what I need for these wheels?

Thanks,
Jerry

Jerry,

You might be referring to the (Tuner) style lug nuts. They are smaller then standard lugs. I know they are required on the Hallibrand wheels. You can pick up a set at any Discount Tire.

Thanks,

Mike

I'm using Bullitts on my resto-mod Galaxie project.
Do Bullitt wheels REQUIRE a different lug nut, or are the regular acorn style nuts ok ?

Jim,
Would love to see the car. I hear it came out great.

The Bullits do not require special lugs. You can see in my pic that there is lots of clearance around the lugs and my stock Mustang lugs worked fine before I picked these one up.

Cheers, Rod
