I know this has been talked about before but would anyone have any reservations to running this on a '68 Coronet? The owner claims it is all stock and works just fine.

And secondly does anyone make left handed lug nuts for the Magnum 500 Wheels?

Hard to believe you can get a 295 on the rear without rubbing, thats a big tire man
I have chrome LH lug nuts on both my cars with Magnum 500s. (Driver side only) I bought them re-popped, but it's been so long I forgot where. They ARE out there.
Herbs has correct repro lug nuts

295's fit just fine on a '69 Coronet. Of course I didn't just guess at this, I spent hours measuring and studying the tire & wheel specs prior to purchase.
