So i got 4 new tires today from sears so i could pass inspection lol. I decided to get them mounted on rota 15x6.5. I kinda needed tires in a hurry and didnt have much money so i just got what was available and cheap. I ended up with kuhmo solus 195x60x15. I havent seen any rubbing torubles yet. But sears used my stock lug nuts to put these wheels on, because i forgot to mention something in my haste. Should i buy new lug nuts? Dont they have to be more tapered? I believe my stocks are tapered a little. I dont know It was just a stressful day and i was in a rush and didnt think about lug nuts at all.

I would get some tuner lugs, the stock ones are the 60 degree conical type IIRC.
No need to chance it!

Hell, WalMart sells tapered spline-drive lugs now. Get something before you snap a stud or worse.
