Keith- Don't forget the clamping force of the lug nuts/bolts to resist the torque. When I was into the chevys, most all of the aftermarket/racing wheels used straight bore holes for the lugs, but you had to use lug nuts with a shaft that fit into the wheel lug bore (tight clearance), with a washer under the lug nut shoulder. I ran these wheels for years on my 400hp (13 seconds on street tires and thru the mufflers) street car without any problems!! And you can't treat 400hp nicely ;) It just itches too much!! The Porsche wheels on my Fasty use the spherical nuts, but the wheel is located with hubcentric bushings (which I made). Lug nuts have to match the wheels.
