Ok. I get what your saying but what is the degree of taper of the head on aftermarket lugs so that they seat properly?

The one adapter is only 0.20' (5.08mm) thick and has a small shank to fit inside but the seat is only 45 deg taper. The original one I linked is 0.25'' (6.35mm) but at 60 deg taper for the seat, so this might be close

I would buy a few to tryout cause they have a no hassle return policy but I don't have aftermarket lugs.

Im hoping these will be a game changer for ppl with stock sport rays and want aftermarket lugs! .....like myself
