It looks like you have a mish-mash of wheels, torque plate and lug nuts. Who knows what has transpired over the years.

But you say that in the 4th picture, where the torque plate won't fit into the wheel hub opening that the opening is 5-3/8" diameter while the other one where the torque plate fits with the flange inside the wheel has an inside diameter of 4-7/8". Did you mean the wheel in Pic #4 is 4-3/8" inside diameter?

Also, the picture of the torque plate and lug nuts shows that the nuts have been tightened down on the flange side of the torque plate, from the scarring. The torque plate has no chamfer for taper seat lug nuts, so those would be the wrong ones to use. It looks like the torque plate should be installed with the wheels that have the larger hub opening to help center them.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
