A wheel installation kit is based on your specific vehicle and is designed to be a perfect match for your new wheels or rims. This helps ensure that your new rims will properly fit your vehicle. Here are some of the variables you need to keep in mind when searching for an installation kit:
Lug nuts vs bolts
Locking lug nuts
Lug nut size & thread pitch
Lug nut seat
Wheel/rim seat
We highly recommend getting a wheel installation kit with your new rims because the original equipment (OE) lug nuts/bolts almost never fit aftermarket wheels.
Not sure what installation kit is right for you? No problem. When you purchase your new rims and installation kit from us, we’ll make sure you get the perfect kit for your specific vehicle/wheel combo. If you got your wheels elsewhere and you’re not sure what installation kit you need, we can help you find the right installation kit for you. Swing by and we’ll help you out!
We offer high-quality installation kits that are available in a variety of colors and finishes to suit your style preferences. It might seem surprising, but there’s a huge range of lug nut types and sizes. Lug nut kits can vary by lug nut seat type, thread pitch, length, diameter and even color! That’s why it’s so it’s important to make sure you get the right installation kit for your needs.
HUB CENTRIC RINGS
Wondering what hub centric rings are? Most aftermarket wheels are lug centric, meaning they center around the lug nuts. Hub centric rings are used to make these wheels fit like a hub centric wheel. While this can reduce some road vibration, it’s not necessary for installation.
In addition to wheel installation kits and hub centric rings, you can also check out our selection of wheel accessories!
