Default Convo Pros and lugnuts?

My brother has a set of 15X8 1/2 Convos on his car. I want to put them on my TA just for the track. It has a set of MT Sportman Pros, 26" tires. Will this setup fit under my car? If so, I know I need lugnuts so would Summit or someone know what I need to make them work on my car? Thanks. I need them for this weekend.

with a 5.5" BS, they will fit. They'll stick out like the Enkies on a Latin contractors F150, but it just for the track, so who cares right. id call Summit, but someone here (McRat, Black Sunshine) will know also.

I figured they would stick out like a set of 100 spoke Datons in deep Compton. But it's just for the track and I will be trailering it there.

Actually I think the most B.S. Centerline offer is 5" thats why people who run them don't need to grind the calipers(they don't go that far into the wheelwell)

I got my lugs from Summit. You can find cheaper ones but I guess I had too much money in my pocket at the time. Part # mcg63002 4pk (need 4 sets) and 1 pack of mcg-63016

Any 12mmx1.5 thread lug will work with a 1.365 shank

I'd suggest getting longer wheel studs so you know there's enough thread engagement. I can't think of anyone losing the wheel but I didn't want to be the first.
