I hope I haven't done this one before. New:

The six lug socket definitely will not work, and the other one is too small. But thanks for offering! [emoji106] Anyway, it's all moot now. I chose the path of least resistance and hit the "Buy Now!" button. It'll be here in a week or so. Thanks everyone for the ideas and advice! [emoji106]

Good food, good company. Thanks for having me. (y)
