OK so here is why i don't buy used vehicles from private people.
I bought a 98 f150 v8 4.6 and have had it like a project vehicle. I ran into a new problem. The previous owner decided to put 2004 f150 17 inch 5 lug aluminum rims and i believe they used the wrong lug nuts. I can find the right ones for it. I was trying to find a best fit but this is seeming a bit out of the realm of possibility. Any thoughts on how to work this out? I was thinking about getting new lug bolts to accommodate the different rims but I am not sure this is possible. Any advice would be most helpful.http://www.f150nation.com/images/smilies/mad.png

Well don't understand ur whole problem with situation. Are the lug bolts damaged? Or the spindles been changed? Surely these a place around to help u with lug nuts?
