Old school 15x7 slots… correct wheel lugs?

[Gas Pig]

I know this might be a elementary question but I need to but wheel lugs for my 15x7 older slot mag wheels (Alcoa 857). I just what to buy the correct and good quality lugs.

What should I get?

How old of a vintage are they? Do they take tapered nuts, or straight shank nuts?
Not familiar with the Alcoa 857 myself, so I guess I’ll have to look it up.

Jeff, they should look like the picture. But you still need to get the correct ones. They vary in shoulder depth and even washer design.

Post a picture of the wheel center. Not an elementary question at all considering how many different types of wheel lug nuts were used back in the day.

You can go all through this website, it will have dimensions once you know exactly the depth etc

They are straight shanked for sure. Being an older wheel I’m hoping I find the right depth and width of shanked lug.

My buddy kept having issues with his lugs on his aluminum wheels until he went with gorilla lug nuts. I’ll check out their website site.

McGard lugnuts have held up well for me.
Decades with no rust, chipping, or peeling.
