Does anyone make smaller diameter mag seat lugs?
I am trying to use a set of '14 Mitsubishi Evo wheels on my '13 G37S sedan, but have an issue with the lugs. The Evo wheels use mag seat lugs just like the factory Infiniti wheels, but they have a different thread. I tried to use the Infiniti lugs on the Evo wheels, but they are about 1-2mm too wide in diameter to fit through the lug bores and secure the rims. I thought about drilling out the holes in the Evo rims, but my chance of drilling them all perfectly without a special press are about 0%. All the aftermarket lugs I see are tapered and will deform the rim when you try to torque them down.

Never mind. I had the lug bores re-drilled at a local machine shop. Just waiting to have the tires mounted and balanced. Hopefully, this works ok as far as being balanced as the machine shop tried to claim the lug holes were not centered on the hub bore and are ever so slightly off center
