Sorry about that.

I'm not sure what the specs of the lug nuts are. I will try to find out for you.

The ride is good on the stockers. Can't tell any difference over the stock wheels.

I do need to try to find time to get to Petty's! Work has blown up for us lately.

Thanks for the compliment, got the idea from you!!

I am not particularly happy with the Falkens that is why I asked. I may have my stock goodyears put onto the good rims. The Falkens are like Bricks

I got you. All I can compare it to is to the stock 20" wheels and I see no ride difference at all. The RT doesn't exactly float over bumps. The ride is actually pretty firm stock. Not too bad but I do wish the ride was softer.

No these tires they react very quickly to road surface which is good and bad they grab grooves and pull. I put stockers back on and zero issues

I am going to a place to have them all rebalanced and the truck aligned to give it them the benefit of a doubt and then we will see.

Hmmm, I don't have that issue, thankfully. I have been down that road a lot with performance tires on my old S2000 though. I had some that really gripped well in corners but they follow grooves in the road terribly. No fun.
