yes theyll fit, theyre 'basically' universal made to fit all rims.
-
oo alright so definately fit?
it aint gna be to big like normal nuts?
-
how are normal nuts 'too big' for your wheel?
-
they are to fat to fit in the whole!
thats why i wna know, allen key nuts fit coz they are slim.
-
-
how bout u measure your slim lock nuts and maybe someone with rays can measure theirs and ull know cause from what i know rays lug nuts are ment to replace the stock ones in width.
-
it would be 1.5"
these are basically the nuts i got now :

P.S they are called lug nuts. Lock nuts have a special key.
If your still struggling autobarn sell lug nuts with a special key which are thin to fit all rims.
In my experience the allen key type have a tendency to break/become rounded. I've had to weld on the allen key twice to get the rims off.
It usually happens cos of stupid tyre places putting them on too tight or they get seized on. Also some of them are just not good quality. If you use the allen key type make sure you inspect them each time to take them on and off to make sure they are not gonna break. And NO you cannot chizel them out as most wheel that need them will not have any room. I spent quite a long time on the prob until i got the autobarn ones
The autobarn ones i had have been the best since, never a prob for like 5yrs now.
