Can Spare Tire on Steel Wheel Use Same Lug Nuts as Alloy Wheels
Question:
Trailer came with lions head alloy wheels and steel spare. Can you use the same lug nuts when mounting the steel spare or do I need to buy lug nuts specific for the steel wheel?

Expert Reply:
The lug nuts for your alloy wheels will work just fine with your spare tire mounted on a steel wheel. The Dexstar # AM20422 wheel you'd looked at is compatible with a 1/2-20 lug nut like # 12CLN which would also be compatible with an alloy rim, assuming your trailer's wheel studs are 1/2-20.
