I did when I got new rear axles for my Spitfire (GP race car), a complete
assembly all the way out to the hubs, and they came with larger and longer
studs. I have the Revolutions too, which originally came with those “tuner”
nuts. I had the lugnuts drilled out (all the way through) to the larger size I
needed. The drilled-out nuts worked fine.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>So, I ordered a set of Revolutions for my race GT6 from England -
reasonable price, all in with shipping $720.
<DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>However, the wheels that were supposed to be fitted with steel seats at the
bolt holes and take standard wheel nuts, instead have no steel inserts and will
only take narrow/tuner nuts. The narrow nuts require short studs (so you
can fit a hex wrench inside the nut, which does not work at all with the long
wheel studs on my race car. I also wanted the steel seats as the wheels
get removed and refitted a lot, maybe not essential and certainly not on a
street car, but it's what I thought I was getting.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Long story short, the seller is offering them to me at half price or I can
ship them back, so I am passing on the 1/2 price offer as I don't want to keep
them. I can ship or bring to the Kastner Cup. $360 for the four plus
shipping</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Wheels are brand new in original packing, 13"x6", 4-1/4" backspace, 3.75"
bolt circle, complete with wheel nuts. Photo attached, or if it doesn't
come through, send me an email. Note, the stock photo does not show the
wheels bored for the specific bolt hole circle - once bored as mine are, the
seat is recessed in a 0.85" bore that accepts the narrow lug nuts.</DIV></DIV>
