Forgestar F14 - Lug Nuts

Those with Forgestar F14... Are different / longer lugs required ? ...I heard somewhere that there's not enough threads to properly tighten down the lug nuts??

No, the stock lugs are fine and long enough.

You probably read my post, after speaking with a employee at Z1 and gaining what little input i gathered here, it is not needed. The rep from Z1 said as long as there is at least a half inch of bolt exposed AFTER the wheel is mounted you are good to go.

^ The above conclusion confirms with members here as well. I was able to do 9, 360 degree rotations with the lug wrench.

Hope this helped. I prefer to understand the reasoning behind the simple "yes" and "no" that i've gotten

CHEERS!

If you have Forgestars, you want to make sure that the lugnuts you purchase are cone seat and have a thread pitch of 12mm x 1.25

Picture Reference for Seat Type:



Forgestar does carry plenty of lug nuts/ wheel bolts in their warehouse, so you can always add them to your order for $60.00.

Hope that clears things up!
