Long Trans-Am Style Lug Nuts

[86Cutlass383SR]

Just to make sure, I tested a standard 7/16" steel lug nut on a chevy rear end that I had laying around with a torque wrench and found that the lug will either strip out or break off the stud at about 80 lbs. When I finish my lug nuts, I'm going to test them and see how they do.

Isn't the torque on a stock Chevy between 80 and 100, depending on application? I'd believe it would take more like 120 - 140 ft/lbs to get one to strip/snap.

I'm not trying to be negative. I'd like a set if/when you do these myself. Any chance you could have some 12mm sets made up? I'd have to find out the proper taper for my wheels. I guess I could go with 7/16" but then I'd have 20 studs to change out.
