Default Will factory lugs & Moto Metal 970's

I have an 08 screw, does anyone know if the factory lugs will fit under the Moto Metal 970 center caps?

I can't say for sure on those, but most of the time the problem is the width of the nut on aftermarket rims. That's why a lot of shops use splined nuts with a low profile socket.

Ok, I put in an e-mail to one of the places I was going to get them from and asked as well.

No, I have a 2013 screw. The flange on the factory lug won't go into the wheel.

I just took off the OEM 20" wheels and installed a set of Moto Metal MO961. Jason51 is correct, OEM lug nut flanges were way too big for the aftermarket wheels. Ask the wheel supplier, they should know. It probably depends on the wheel brand and model. My wheel supplier set me up with everything I needed for the set up I wanted. Wheels, tires, TPMS and lug nuts. See the picture of the OEM lug nut on the left and the aftermarket on the right.

Who's your wheel supplier? I'm getting the Moto Metal 970's but don't wanna sound the coin on Cooper stt, so I was gonna opt for the Atturo Trail Blade but Mr Wheel Deal, said they're back ordered for 4-6 weeks
