In working to restore my 70 sx, I removed one of the wheels to replace the rusted lugnuts with new SS1 replacement lugnuts. What I found is that the previous owner had at some point replaced the lugnits with the wrong angle/size for the wheel, eventually enlarging the bolt hole (wallered out). Are my original SS1 wheels salvagable or do I need to replace the wheel? I've heard you can get special lugnuts for wheels that had this happen to them, is there any repair that can be done that allows me to use SS1 stock lugnuts?

 

Look for "bulge" lug nuts. They have a larger/wider seat. If those don't work, the wheels are scrap.

 

found some that look original except that they have a wider flange at the base. Thanks
