Hi
I need some help to determine what is going on with these rims. The rims are Voxx and came with summer tires mounted along with a OG 9-3, I recently purchased.
The problem: In the picture two lug nuts are seen. The left is 9-3 NG lug nut and one on right lug nuts are 12X1.5 on the OG (right), the one in question. I cannot put a socket to put these tires on the car. The OD of the tire lug whole is 22mm. The bolt takes a 17 mm socket. I have tried 4 differnt 17 mm sockets and all are above 23 mm OD, which will just not fit. Even the so called thin walled scokets are not less than 22 mm OD.
The guy I got the car from just took it to Discount tires to change his tires, so he is clueless and I am stumped. Any suggestions? Comments? I could call discount tires?
I am trying to use these rims with my 9-3NG but i am not sure if i have to toss the idea and just get some used 17 rims!
