Where dome shaped lugs original for a 1927 coupe or was the square shape the original?

Dome shaped lug nuts (5) are original for Ford wire wheels of 1927... nickel plated too

The reason I asked is: The only supplier that has the square end nut is Lang's, and theirs has a problem with the chroming off. They will sell them at very discounted price.

Another supplier has several types of dome nuts, cadmium, chrome and polished stainless steel. The cadmium and chrome are $2.00 and the stainless is $5.50.

Do any of you have good square end, chrome nuts?

Quite sure "dome" lug nuts started with the Model A.

On my mostly original 27, the lug nuts are the tall square type.

The dome lug nuts belong on the Model A, not a T. T lug nuts are flat topped.

My 27 Tudor has had flat top plated lug nuts from way before I bought in 1882.

Being a total moron could someone post photos of the two types of lug nuts in question.

Look in the classifieds. There are some original for sale.

Here is T wire wheel with correct style lug nut. Two of the others are impostors
