97 GTS Gen 3 Wheel Swap

[Voodoo Rob]

Purchased a set of Gen 3 10 spokes from a club member and then tires and centercaps with correct logo from Partsrack. My stock 97 lugnuts are not a closed top chrome "acorn" style so a trip to the parts store and now the issue. The factory lugnuts have a built in skirt for contact area on the rim as opposed to the new parts store lugnuts with no skirt. Am I being over cautious or justified in my concern?

I can advise you but need to see photos of the items in question..can you post some pics?

I believe if you get lugnuts for a Jeep, they will fit(same/same). The jeeps have the chrome covers just like the Vipers.

I downloaded the instructions for loading photos, so working on getting a photo posted.

Now I have to figure out why a link was posted and not the photo.

but I think we need to see the lugnut comparison not the wheels on your car
