Hello,

Looking to install some new rims but I see this offset-looking lug how do you install this.

I have not bought them yet but this looks odd to me...

how would you install this and torque it down ?

Hello,

Thanks for posting the instructions, I guess I thought that the adapter got torqued down first and then you installed the offset lug I guess I thought too much into it. So from the instructions it looks like the rim squishes the adapter also and torques it tight to the drum, the three other lugs crank down the adapter. I guess the offset one is a pass-through a little different than what I thought.

Thank you again
