It’s NOT safe to drive a Chevy truck with a missing lug nut. Because even if it is a lug nut missing, there will be uneven pressure on the wheel hub, meaning the other lug nuts are more likely to loosen. As the Chevy lug nuts loosen enough, the wheels can fall off suddenly, which is one of the most frightening things that can happen to you. If you find missing wheel nuts, it’s a good idea to get a set of quality wheel nuts that can greatly resist corrosion or other damage.
Besides, most aftermarket truck wheel nuts require new lug nuts to fit. This is because various manufacturing companies make aftermarket wheels, which are probably different from the OEM ones, like the lug seat types, the thickness of the mounting pad, and the diameter of the lug holes. Getting the right Chevy truck lug nuts ensures proper wheel fitment. As long as you install them properly, it is very safe to use quality aftermarket wheel nuts, even if your drive in off-roading events.
