Lug Nut Covers

[dale farley]

Are the little snap on lug nut covers for an XL 15/8" or 33m? I've purchased several in the past, but don't remember which size they were. I guess the real question is, "will the 33mm fit the 1 5/8" lug nuts?

I think I answered my own question. It appears that 1 5/8" is about 41 mm, so I assume the 33 mm covers dare not interchangeable with the 1 5/8". The 33mm seem to be the most common size today.

Dale,

As a rule of thumb, stud piloted wheels have 1 1/2" lug nuts and hub piloted wheels will have 33mm lug nuts. Prevosts before sometime around 2004 had stud piloted wheels unless they had upgraded the tires to 365s. Wheels for 365 tires are hub piloted.

So, your coach should have 1 1/2" lug nuts. BTW, it might be harder to find covers for 1 1/2" lug nuts because the trucking industry switched to hub piloted wheels long ago.
