Get Shanked!!!

Have a set of SSR MKI, II or IIIs? Notice how there is no Taper where the lug nut hole is? This is because these wheels do not use a 60 degree tapered lug nut but a Shank type lug nut. These are flat on the bottom or a 90 degree seat and also require a washer when mounted on a car. This style lug nut can be pretty hard to come by but SSR offers Shank Type Lug nuts at a reasonable price so it won’t hurt your wallet.

Shank type lug nuts can be ordered on More Japan. When ordering, please make sure you’re choosing the right thread  pitch (M12x1.25 or M12x1.5) and also note the PCD of your car since the included washer is different depending on the PCD.
