Did I am trying to put this wheel on my 73 roadrunner? I have one lug nut on. Is this a metric wheel or something?
Thanks for the help.

Centerline Tool Corporation closed about 15 years ago. I don't know who is making "centerlines" now, I suspect china.....I would email center lines tech dept. and send them a picture of the wheel and ask them what it requires. I can’t tell from looking at the pics on my small screen here, but I’m suspicious that someone may have ran it with the wrong washer/bolt combination or it otherwise came loose while being ran.
However, if it’s just because of the lighting condition making it look galled all up, then it probably uses something like the ET oval washers and the 60 degree seat shank type lug nuts.
Thanks, I thought the wheel has been out of production for a while... I would love to just get a part number and call someone..Centerline Tool Corporation closed about 15 years ago. I don't know who is making "centerlines" now, I suspect china.....
I got some lug nuts with the wheels, I used the old ones I had. I thought the shanks would be the same size... With the one I put in and ran in to hold the wheel on the studs still were not evenly spaced... But I never say never anymore, I will check it out better tomorrow.. and get back..Every Centerline Tool wheel I've ever had uses a shank lug nut. It looks to me like that is the right pattern. What is the problem?
(If I had to guess, I think your shank lugs are too large. Pull the wheel, and see if you can get the lugs in the lug holes.)
If the pattern wasn't right, you couldn't get all five lugs through the lugholes.
Try starting all five lugs on the studs about three threads (looks like the studs stick out the front of the wheel a bit) and then pull the wheel onto the lugs . If you tighten a shank lug on a wheel with the wheel imperfectly centered, you won't get the other lugs on.I got some lug nuts with the wheels, I used the old ones I had.

That is absolutely true.As you mentioned, the later mopars used a 115 mm bolt pattern. It could be that.
