Wheel bolts too short for lug nut to grab AKA the Wheel Ordeal

[CTScott]

Measure the diameter of the smallest part of the opening (to see if the 0.62" diameter tube of the Gorilla lug nuts will enter.

Also, measure the depth from the beginning of the taper to the back side of the lug nut opening. From the picture it looks like they are really thick wheels, which would mean longer studs would need to be installed on the car.

I just measured the opening at its smallest part, i actually measured from the back, i got approximately 13mm or .52"

I think I might be screwed.

I enquired to the guy i bought them from and he said it was some shop in Scarborough. Not sure where.

I also went to two "specialized" wheel shops but no luck.
