I'll say it again...Danny_Ocean...there are no "Grade 8" metric fasteners .... I think you mean property class 10.9 or even 12.9....

It wouldn't surprise me if wheel lug nuts were grade/"property class" 8's. That would still be stronger than the aluminum alloy nuts that came standard. -Chris

For whatever it's worth, these nuts have a marking on the back. "J" on the top and the number "8" on the bottom.
