The damn search function wont search lug nut because the words are to short?

I have the factory 3 spoke 16" wheels and am going to be swapping them out for the off road 5 spoke 17" ones. Will my existing lug nuts work?

I tried my local Dodge dealer , but he couldn't help me without a VIN. I bought used wheels and didn't get the VIN.... who would have thunk.....

 

i think they'll be the same. just put one of your old lug nuts into the dimple on the 17" wheel and check fit. also put the new wheels on and make sure they don't hit a ball joint or knuckle or something. check length of lugs and make sure they're not too long or too short. measure backspace of old vs new to see if same.

 

They are the same....Although, I'd replace them anyway.

 

Problem I ran into with stock lugnuts on Centerline wheels is not all lug wrenches fit into the holes. You may have to use a socket.

 

Lug nut's are universal, half the lug nut's that are on my truck came from a mid 70's GMC. it all depends on thread patter on your lugs

 

And if they are acorn or flat which is rare anymore.

 

mine are acorns

 

i would replace them too cuz when i had to take my 33x12.50's off one of the cheap acorn ones ripped in two the cap just came right off i went to Oriellys and got the heavy duty chrom not the cheap ones from autozone.I would think they would fit i took 17's steelies from an 09 and they fit just fine

 

Actually, this kind of thinking nearly lost me a wheel on my old 65 Impala.
I had 3 studs break due to using the wrong lug nuts.
Some aftermarket wheels require a bulge-seat lug nut.

 

On my wife's intrepid the lug nuts that came with her steel rims wouldn't work with the factory aluminum ones i use for summer, so I had to buy new ones that were slightly longer so i could get a wrench on them. As long as the thread pitch is the same, the only other important thing is that the lug nut taper matches that of your rims, and that you can (of course) properly get a wrench on them.
