Here's the latest as of today (Monday Nov 16, 2020).
I have the wheel rim info that says flanged nuts are required and cone nuts are the wrong ones from the spec sheet - post #6
I have an email from PJ Trailers saying that flange nuts are to be used on this style of wheel rim.
I have an email from Dexter axle saying that the 17.5" rim has to be the cone type to the 9/16" studs and the flat faced one is only to be used with 5/8" studs and flat faced lug nuts.
I have a 2nd email from PJ Trailers saying that the rim the dealer installed is the wrong one.
Looks pretty clear to me what the solution needs to be. I've sent these emails to the saleslady at the dealer along with the chart from rickson. She is going to talk to the manager to see what they're going to do.
I'll update this as things develop.
