xmeatbagx Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'm swapping my rims and want to change my lug nuts. I was wondering if these would work with the steel 5 dimpled spoked rims off a 95 Cherokee. http://www.quadratec.com/products/92806_100x_pg.

HOrnbrod Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Yes, they should work just fine with factory wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyav8r Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 That's what I used on my 88 MJ with the five spoke steel Cherokee wheels. They look good with the stock center caps (IMHO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I notice that you are in Connecticut. Be advised those lugs nuts will work, but they'll only be good for one Connecticut winter. They are not stainless steel, they're chrome plated. The plating is VERY thin and poor quality. It will not stand up to that liquid salt stuff Connecticut now puts on the roads.

Keyav8r Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I believe the ones I bought are stainless steel, not chrome plated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 The link you provided clearly says "Chrome." Since they appear to be one piece, rather than a steel nut with a stainless cap crimped on like the factory lug nuts, I'm going to go with "Chrome."

dankicksass Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Stainless steel is overrated. I have the black chrome Gorilla nuts on my Chevy since 05, and they're still fine. I can't imagine CT road crews being any more liberal with salt application than NJ DOT and PennDOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Something like 17 out of the 20 original, stainless steel lug nuts on my '88 Cherokee are still going strong. I have replaced a couple where the stainless cap has popped off. On one of the MJs I tried a set of solid, chrome-plated lug nuts. I try to be careful about not using a burp gun to beat up on my lug nuts, and the plated ones were solid rust after one winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
