Why you need one if you have T Kane hub caps

The Budd nut just distorts the heck out of them. But you can’t just simply change from a Budd stud centered setup to a standard hub centered setup. Different wheels and different nuts.

Yea, changing the hubs is not an option. But possibly making some brackets similar to the ones for the real wheels might work. I also am not a big fan of the fact that the nut on the TKane covers is hard to get to catch sometimes. I thought about it just being a fixed threaded hole. I know they did not do that though mainly because of all that flex in the brackets. I will noodle a bit more on this and see what I come up with. I also like the idea of the brackets being attached without having to remove lug nuts.
