Does anyone know if I have to increase the stud size on my ram50(mitsi) stock size is m12 but the wheels I picked up for it are sized for an m14 either way the lug nuts are still a cone seat.

yeah I dont know either...I know that if it is the other way around they will just drill the wheels out.. I would check with a local shop just to be safe

Thanks. Noone seems to know and the shops around here are clueless. Everyone uses escalade wheels on their minis which is the same issue I guess noone thinks about stud size or it doesn't matter thanks for the trying to help on this issue

i would think its ok as long as the cone shape is there. that is what should center the wheels. on my 66 mustang the holes in the steel wheels were about an 1/8" bigger than the 1/2" studs. the lugnuts centered them and i never had any problems.
