Just purchased a new set of douglas .190s for my trailblazer. The stock lug nuts are tapered and someone told me just to put them on backwards. Sounds a little strange to me anyone have any advice? should i be able to find some flange type lug nutsat the hardware that will work? Thanks all!

Polaris sells chrome lug nuts that should solve your problem.BTW,I don't know what your stock l-nuts look like but I used to reverse the l-nuts on my Banshee when I put my paddles on.

Ive had a set of douglas black labels for over a year and simply purchased hardened flat washers from farm and fleet and flipped the stock lug nuts over and have had no problems at all, If any thing maybe a dose of blue loctite just in case, But again in my case a year of hard trail riding and no worrys
