Cragar wheel washers
 
Hey Guys- I want to replace the lug nuts on my SS chrome Cragars, I see the replacements use a cupped washer instead of the flat originals. Any concerns?
Thanks in advance...........

The Carlstar Group is rinky-dink and their Cragar SS wheels are junk. They are comprised of rims (barrels) rolled, half-ass welded, and poorly formed by Cragar in Aiken, SC, shipped to California for a superficial polishing, shipped to Mexico for flash chroming, then shipped back to Aiken for assembly. The aluminum alloy centers are low-quality castings made entirely in China, then shipped to Aiken, SC, for final assembly where the rims and the centers are welded together. It is no wonder that the crappy parts of the wheel do not fit together right!

Mine are probably 30 years old now, made/finished in the good old USA. Still look brand new.
