Looking at them they also have a special washer depending on the application. What number wheel did you order? Also what is your bolt pattern?

Something is not compatible. I would check with the company that made the wheels and find out what they recommend. My bets the outer diameter of the lug shank is to small for the wheel.

They would have to be 4" bolt pattern to use the 7/16" lugnuts.

I recently bought a set of new Cragar S/S Mags for my 69 Dart. Now days you don't get lug nuts with them anymore. So I went on E-bag and found some sellers who sell what suppose to be lug nuts for Cragar S/S mags. Remember this is a 69 Dart, so the nuts are 7/16"-20 and have a 3/4" inch long shank length. Mounted up the first mag & tire, tighten it down and discovered you could still wiggle the mag all over the place. The lug nuts were slightly to long. Put on the other 3 mags and the same thing happen with them. Removed all 20 lug nuts and headed down to my local machine shop guy and had him shorten them a bit. Came home mounted up a wheel and it tighten down beautifully, no more wiggle. Same with the other 3 wheels. Torque the lugs nuts to 55 ft.lbs like the Dodge service manual calls for with 7/16" wheel studs. Take the car for a test drive. Drive it 1 mile and return back home. Check the lug nuts and they are all lose. Re-torque the nuts again, this time to 65 ft.lbs Take another 1 mile drive and return back home. Again the Cragar nuts are loosen up. Has anyone else here had this problem or have any guesses what is going on? Thanks.

Are the threads deep enough in the nuts? Might be the studs reaching the end of the threads before clamping the wheel down.

I'd be highly surprised if the wheels are hanging up on the register.

Easy to check, wheel off, hand tighten a nut onto a stud and measure the space between the seat of the nut and the wheel hub. It MUST BE LESS than the thickness of the wheel and washer.

I never has Cragar SS' come with the lugnuts and washers, they were extra.

If it's a unilug wheel then you need the special offset washer and I would start all the nuts and run them down hand tight using a socket and extension, no ratchet, before I put a wrench on any of them.

I went to Cragar's website and there are a lot of possible wheels, what is the exact part number of the ones you have? I would suggest buying the nuts and washers made by Cragar

I believe Cragar A-09005-4 (RHT) and Cragar A-09004-4 (LHT) are what you need, summit has them

Hey Sniper, that"s the Cragar lug nuts I bought, just not from Summit Racing and they wouldn't tighten down my mag wheels. The shanks seem to be a little to long. So I took the nuts down to my local machine shop guy and had him shaved them down a little. Came home put a wheel on and they tighten down good, or so I thought. Mounted up the other 3 mags to 55 foot lbs and took the car for a spin. Drove it 1 mile, came home and checked the lug nuts and most were coming loose. Re-tighten again. This time to 65 foot pounds. Drove the car again 1 mile and returned home. Checked the nuts a second time, same thing coming loose again. Can't tighten them any more past 65 ft. lbs for fear of breaking the 7/16 wheel studs. Anybody got any suggestions? So now I've got $800 dollars worth of Cragar S/S Mags I can't use.
