Question:
I have a 10 Aluma trailer. It has the junky lug nuts that have the stamped metal cover over them that becomes a mystery size over time. Im looking for replacements but am a bit overwhelmed by the options on your site. I have a few pictures of them Id like to send you to figure out a suitable replacement. Or can you help me narrow it down? Thanks, Kevin

Hey Kevin, I'd be shocked if you didn't need a standard 1/2 inch lug nut like the # 12CLN you mentioned but this is the type that can swell overtime since it's chrome and that is susceptible to corrosion. A stainless steel lug nut like the part # DE55KR would be a better option. Feel free to email me back with a picture of what you have though and I'll double check.
