Took about 20mins for all 10 nuts, and it works fine from what I can tell. The part that needs grinding is just the chrome plated cap crimp that fits over the actual lug nut. No structural change.

Mine would not work on all 4.. thought about grinding them but don't want hokey crap on my car.. Just bought new ones that fit right

I do like the black wheels, I'm trying to find a trade for my "upgrade" silver ZL1 wheels to swap for blacks...unfortunately I'm up here on the west coast of Canada near Vancouver, anyone close interested in a trade?
I will be heading to Charlotte next week to Zmax for the start of the Hot Rod power tour...if anyone between here and there is interested in swapping up? My ZL1 and tires only have 1500 miles on them, and of course those are gentle miles

BTW, the difference in flying rock debris going from the stock SS 20's with Pirelli. and the Good Year F1 285/305's... depressing! It's especially bad when it rains and there is allot of asphalt debris on the back paved roads...

I have the stock molded mud flaps too. My car has ~27,000 miles and I only have one chip in the gills... I'm sure that's going to change pretty quick.

Cant imagine a stock 1LE without any guards at all.
