Default I need narrow lugs for Mickey T's, help!!!!!!!!

I just bought the Mickey thompson Bead-lok wheel and the stock lug nuts are to wide to fit in the wheels. Where can I find a narrow set of lug nuts to fit these wheels? Please help!!!!!

Most auto parts stores will have them, or google lug nuts. Probably a few online sources!!!

When I replaced the lug nuts that were getting pitted and rusty on my Mickey Thompson Classic IIs, I couldn't find lug nuts near long enough for the wheels OR the right thread for a Dodge at any of my local auto parts stores and had to order a set from Summit...

thats I've been doing but all I'm coming up with is the original factory lug which is too big. Pep boys and advanvce auto say they have them but only like 2 or 3 which I need 20 of them for an entire set. They say they are 4 to 6 dollar a piece does that sound right? I'm going to go over there in a couple hours to check them out.

When I bought new rims my old lugs didnt fit either. I ended up buying some from a local rim shop and got locks with them for $25

I dunno the part number but they were the Gorilla brand ones with the 60* conical seat and are the bulge type as per Mickey Thompson specs... Were like $35 for the set of 20 shipped...

I'm ALMOST positive it's RH, but hell take your lug wrench out to one and make sure, cause I ain't gonna do a Google search when you can just as easily...

I would go with gorilla lug nuts... They are not supposed to rust and if they do they have a lifetime warranty on them..
