      Long rear lug nuts

      I have a 69 camaro--I'm running 18x8 18x10 boze shifters with the BFG KDW's. The rear lugs are extra long and I am trying to see if there is something I can do to cover them or change how it appears. Any comments will be appreciated!

      I noticed them sticking out in your post yesterday but I'm not certain longer lugnuts would look good with that style wheel.I've tried that look myself and wasn't pleased.

      Have you thought about cutting them...?

      How long? My rears are 4" long 1/2"x20 with open nuts. I leave them as is. It makes tech inspection easy. If you want to pretty it up, take an open ended nut, back it out to the desired length and use it as a guide to cut it short. Then backing the nut off helps clear the burr. Then you can run closed end nuts.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
