I'm finally coming around to installing a set of wheels I got from a forum member about a year ago.

The rims appear to take tapered wheel nuts rather than flat faced nuts. Anyone know the wheel stud thread pitch and diameter?

Also, do I've noticed that my rear tyres wear on the inside more than the outside. My car usually runs unloaded with just me in it. Does this wear pattern sound right or do I need a rear alignment?

thanks.

No idea about your first questions but the answer to your second pair is no, yes, unless you are willing to accept faster wear for better rear grip when cornering, and in the latter case assuming the wear is not extreme.
