What Is an Inverted Lug Nut

Inverted lug nuts are often used in high-speed auto racing. They have a unique design that is very different from a traditional lug nut, and this design fulfills a very specific function when installed.

Identification

Inverted lug nuts are similar to regular lugs nuts except they are concave (curved inward) at the end; traditional acorn lug nuts are convex (curved outward). Additionally, acorn lug nuts have a smooth, rounded tip that forms a 60 degree angle, whereas inverted lug nuts do not.

Uses

These types of lug nuts can be used as a replacement for a vehicles original lugs when they have been damaged or lost. They are usually engineered to the exact specification of the wheels of a particular vehicle and are theore not interchangeable with lugs from other vehicles.

Types

These lug nuts come in most of the designs that are used in racing vehicles. For example, they can be found with heptagonal (seven-sided) heads or mag shank heads. They also come in various sizes for different wheel types.
