Hey Guys,
I recently bought some 18" ford factory freestyle wheels for my girlfirends 02 ford explorer. They have the same wheel pattern but the flang on the wheel is a little thicker then the explorer wheels. When I tried to put the wheel on the lug nuts would only turn 5.5 times before they tighten. I heard minimun amount of turns is 8 for a .5 stud. Anyways is there something different about the freestyle lug nuts or are the studs just longer? Is there anything else I can do with out replacing the studs on the explorer? If that's they case I might have to get some 1 inch spacer with longer studs.
Thanks,
Kevin
