T Type Rims

[GPNX]

I just bought some used t type rims to put on my g body. The lug nut holes are flat meaning they do not have a bevel for the acorn style lug nut. Do I need a certain lug nut for these rims?

Aluminum or steel? Pic?

Aluminum

looks like it uses a shank style lug. i didnt know oem T TYPE rims were like that

Those look like Vectors. Same casting but use Mag wheel lugs. You could get 8.5 and 10" wide Vectors, but the backspacing is generally not Ideal for a G-body.

Those r aftermarket not factory Buick rims.
This is a pic of a factory rim see the lip on the center hole as well as the acorn style lug holes.

Either way it looks like you need a washer with those rims.

If I'm not mistaken, they should use this style, same as my 14" '80 442 rims. The washer is integral to the nut, and has a straight shank.
Hope this helps.

What worked for mine was Mag seat lug nuts for a Toyota

I don't think those are Vectors.

I believe the Vectors use the same factory style lug nut.

Unless of coarse they are an older model Vector

Vectors have been around since the late 70's. The C3 guys loved them.
