I'd stay away from used wires/hubs. I recently converted my
TR3 from disc to wires. Everyone I talked to that put on
used wires wished they had bought new wires and hubs.

The lug nuts are beveled nuts. I got mine from British Wire
Wheel in Santa Cruz. There good people. I'd also get a price

a cutoff tool and a lot of WD40 to cool the studs while
cutting (2 person job with a fire extingusher along side).
