Title: WTB, Lug nuts for Cosmic wheels.
Post by: Richard48Y on Monday,April 05, 2021, 05:36:17 PM

I have a set of Cosmic wheels but not the lug nuts.
Being they are not the same as a Chevy the local sources are not helpful.
Anyone have a set or source to buy them new?

Do Cosmics use tapered nuts or sleeve type? If sleeve what is size of the holes in the wheel and depth?

Just from Googling located these as I think Cosmics have tapered seat:

Best to check the angle of the seat first.

The nice thing is you should only have to spend the money once!
