Mine just snapped on. Are we talking alloy or steel wheels? You DID replace the lug bolts, right??
Incidentally, magnesium (mag) wheels do not rust....

The term "Mag" was used loosely to indicate a particular style of wheel, not the material it is made from. Back in the '60s just about everybody referred to aftermarket spoke type wheels as "Mags". I think the wheels I have are the allow wheels. Does yours just snap on after the wheel is mounted to the truck or do you have to put them on before the wheel is mounted? I don't know why I can't get mine to go on correctly.Mine just snapped on. Are we talking alloy or steel wheels? You DID replace the lug bolts, right??

No, I didn't. I was just doing some reading about that. I put the same lug nuts on that was used on the old "mag" wheel.If you're talking about the front wheel, you have to cut the center out of the hub for it to fit over the hub. The rear should just pop on.
So, did you use the newer alloy wheel lug nuts? If not, you're going to eff up your new wheels...
Ok, great, I wasn't sure. Thanks for your help.I just looked at the pics; those are NOT alloy wheels. They are newer steel wheels. You're good with the conical lugs.
