[URGENT] Steel rim lugs for 2007 Camry SE
« on: November 12, 2006, 07:49:56 pm »
Hello
  First of all, I am sorry for the seemingly lack of purpose for my urgency...

  I have made several trips to different places trying to figure out the correct lug nuts for a set of 16" steel rims that I am mounting onto my 2007 SE for winter.

  My dealer ( only dealer in town ) is closed until Tuesday and I will be making my third trip to Costco tomorrow attempting to get my car into winter mode before heading back to the hectic office life.

  So, I hope to rely on you experts on the forum to help me out... what size lugs should I buy? Or if the stock ones will work just fine?
   
  Thank you so much for your reply.



Jeff

You can find the size and thread type of the  lug nuts in your owners manual.
If the lug nuts you have with the original aluminum (?) wheels have a round surface where the threaded portion starts then I would say that you could use them. That is, steel wheels require "acorn" style wheel nuts/lugs whereas aluminum wheels typically are square but I am not familiar with Toyotas to know for certain.
Can you take a picture of the lug nuts for the forum members to see?

You will need 12x1.5 Acorn lug nuts with a 13/16" hex size.

Thank you so much!

I couldnt' find lugs in your particular spec, so I chose the 12x 1.5 with 21mm Hex ... close enough?

Here's my Camry "winterized"
