TIG 05 Black

link above is wheels a friend is selling me for dirt cheap tomorrow. I just want to know if these will fit my 'lude. Size are 18x7.5. I've put them on and fits but the OEM lug nuts won't fit. Meaning they won''t fit my 'lude or meaning I have to buy new lug nuts?? Please help me out, wheels are spanking new and price is crazy cheap. thanks

You just need new lugs "tuner style". IMO 18"s are a little large and I don't wanna see an ebp with those wheels. Yet its your ride.

18x7.5 is the rim size, but what is the offset...that will ultimately let us know if it will fit

Sorry couldn't reply. Wouldn't let me enter preludeonline the last couple of days. I've looked up the offset and can't find it anywhere. Luckily my friend is going to give me a couple more days to check. Thanks for the help so far but definitely can't find info. on the offset.

thats the lug pattern...the offset is how far the wheels stick out or are set in...

lol damn I can't find anything. Should I just return them or keep them.

test fit them before you buy them.....to make sure you clear the caliper/knuckle assembly and dont flush out too far that you will rub the fender

sorry its been awhile. the offset on the tig 5 rims is 42mm. friend recommended these lug nuts for the rims.

i looked on ebay, not a big fan of aluminum. wanted to know before placing an order for these if anyone can recommend any good lug nuts for my new set of rims. please let me know thanks
