Lug Nuts for E30 Basketweaves?

['02onthebrain]

I know I need new lug nuts for my alloys, but do I need the E30 Basketweave lug nut (pn 36131126191) or the wheel nut for Factory alloys for an '02 (pn 36131113132)?

Thanks.

There are many out there that sell those lug nuts. (BMP, Bav Auto, Bimmerparts, and even your local tire shop.)

The E30s come with 17 mm lug bolts. They have the same cone shape seat that you're looking for but alas. They will obviously not work on the 2002s.

Good luck.

E30 models have lugbolts therefore they will not work on an 02 unless you remove the wheelstuds. Use the lugnuts for 02 factory alloys.

I used the bulge lugnuts with ET tips. The ET tips fit snugly in the bores of the basketweave holes and center the wheel properly. Without ETs and a good bump the wheel can bend the studs. I found them at Prestige Wheel Accessories. http://www.prestigewheel.com/

I don't know what he means by ET tips. Never heard that one before!

But, alloy wheels need conical lug nuts, steel 02 wheels used the bulge lug nuts. It is important to use the correct corresponding attachment items per the type of wheel.
