Question:

I have purchased two 13” directional chrome wheels from etrailer which are on the way. I am putting on a Tracker boat trailer. As a temporary fix, can I use the stock lug nuts until I purchase the stainless steel or chrome nuts? Thank You

As long as your current lug nuts have a 60-Degree cone, like the CE Smith # CE11051, then you are definitely good to use them. This is pretty standard as well so this is most likely what you have.

Just as a side note, if you have not decided on which stainless steel lug nuts to go with, I recommend the Kodiak # KALN1375S. This is a single piece instead of two, like the Lionshead # LHLR103 (as an example). I just prefer the single piece as I think they last longer and are more durable.
