5 Lugs vs 6 Lugs

[VQD83]

Looking at the pictures of the new Tundra, I noticed the wheels are held by 5 lugs versus 6 lugs, which are usually found in their SUVs and Trucks.

The first question in my mind, was this done because of cutting costs, or is it a much more efficient design.

I figured either a SUV or Truck would need a 6 lug design in the wheels for its sheer size and weight it supports.

Thoughts or opinions..

Each of the new Tundra's lugs are made of super heavy duty high tech titanium, mined from special digs in Tanzania, and each one is stronger than 3 of any domestics lugs.





Not really - jus' kidding! I have no idea! :FOS:
