Finally got my Weld Racing rims and tires installed on the Black Ace! 18x9 with 265/50/18 Nitto NT555s in the front, 18x10.5 with 325/40/18 M&H Racemasters in the rear. Thanks to Mark Carlyle and Carlyle Racing, Erik Bentley and Lashway Motorsports, and Five Star Wheels & Tires.

I ordered a set of 18x11s for the rear and 18x9s for the front. Fedex only delivered the rears back on February 22.

The tracking doesn't even show the fronts as being picked up. Weld says they were. Weld also said they would make me a new set so I am back in the queue again.

I ordered 18x8 and 18x10 77b's 3 days ago. No pictures for a little while. They won't be in until the first week of april.

Weld ftw!

mustang50lx · 03-13-2016, 08:34 PM

What kind of / brand of lugnuts is everybody running with the RT-S's? Can the stock ones be used?

D3R3K · 03-13-2016, 08:50 PM

I use these.

I read somewhere that those use a 19mm lug wrench. Is that true? If so do the seem thick enough around the thread area? I actually like those, but was leary about them being strong enough.

mustang50lx · 03-19-2016, 02:32 PM

Anyone else want to chime in on the lug nuts they are using? I don't want the wheels to get here and have to wait for lugnuts also.

Motorboy8769 · 03-19-2016, 08:37 PM

I was planning on using factory lug nuts I hope they will work. I'm ordering my wheels in April

fldrummer · 03-20-2016, 09:25 PM

I reused my factory lugnuts.

GoldCartridgeGamer · 03-21-2016, 08:57 AM

Factory lugs work but leaves little space. I recommend tuner style lugs or the ones linked above. I will be using the following on mine http://www.apex-speed.com/gorilla-wh...1.5-black.html

Motorboy8769 · 03-21-2016, 10:24 AM

I have a similar issue on my truck I can't get a impact socket on the lug nuts. It won't fit in the hole in the rims. Is that the space you are referring to?
