juneaubehr Report post Posted March 31, 2014 Here are some pics of Diablos with Murcielago Hercules Wheels......... The Hermeras will fit the Diablo NO PROBLEM. I have a 92, and mounting the Hercules wheels was NOT a simple swap. The problem : the 92 uses 12mm lug bolts, the 06 Murci Roadster uses 14mm lug bolts. If you mount the Hercules or Hermeras on an early D with the original 12mm lugs there will NOT be much contact between the bolt and the taper seat of the wheel, causing either damage to the wheel or the lug bolts coming loose. The solution : you can either have your hubs and rotors machined for the 14mm lugs, but mounting your original 17" wheels again will be impossible unless you have them machined to accept the 14mm lugs, or install hubs with the original 12mm holes. Tikore will make you a set of Titanium bolts with the 12mm thread and the taper the size of the 14mm lugs at a cost of approx $740 US. When I get home tonight I can post a pic of the size difference between the 12mm and 14mm bolts. If anyone else has a solution without buying titanium lugs, I would love to hear it. cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 12mm lug taper is 0.750" dia and the 14mm lug is 0.987" The 12mm lug protrudes 0.710" through the stock 17" wheel, the 14mm lug protrudes 0.860" through the Hercules wheel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamborga Report post Posted November 22, 2014 Are Aventador wheels interchangeable as well or just the Diablo/Mercielago? No, just Diablo/Murcielago, to fit Aventador wheels on them you'll need an adaptor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am planning on installing Diablo 6.0 wheels on my '91. Any idea on if I will run into the same issue? Do the 6.0's use 14mm lugs? Anyone know?

falconsprint Report post Posted November 23, 2014 I agree. Anyone have a link to any Diablo threads showing more pics w/ updated wheels? The only downside to the Hercules wheels is that they are fairly heavy. Especially compared to the stock 6.0 wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
