Details
Unlike street wheels, drag wheels often have a shank style lug nut. The shank style nut takes some of the bending load off the stud by supporting the stud all the way in to the brake rotor. If you’ve never had the opportunity to witness the studs shearing off and a wheel falling off a car at the drag strip, hit up YouTube, it’s always entertaining!
Unfortunately all of the M12 x 1.25 shank lug nuts on the market do a pretty bad job at this. The problem is there’s no backing to support the washer, and the nut starts to dig into the washer and make it concave.
