Default MR Lug Nuts (981)

I just ordered the new Apex Enduro line wheels that are designed for a 981 CS. They require MR lug nuts. Once I get these lug nuts, can I use the MR lug nuts with my two other sets of standard 981 CS wheels?

No. The MR nuts are longer and as I recall, are not fully threaded. Don't have them in front of me but I think only the outward end is threaded - using them with the standard wheels will result in only a few, if any, threads engaging.

I assume that Apex has measured the MR nuts and ensured they work - both thread depth and seat area. The CS wheel studs only have threads in a specific place and the nut must match.

I'm not as compulsive as you are. I've been doing what you are worried about, with no apparent ill effects.

I didn't know that. I'll look at mine and measure/confirm.

Sorry this took so long, but MR lug nuts are longer, partially unthreaded toward the wheel. I guess they are necessary for MR wheels, maybe others.
