Lugnuts for stock wheels
Lugnuts for stock wheels
I am getting my stock wheels powdercoated and I was thinking about getting some different lugnuts that look better than the stock ones. If anyone has any ideas or has done this safely with the stock wheels please let me know! 
You MUST use a similar style lugnut with a shoulder and preferably a washer. I have never seen anything like this other than the stock ones.
The pretty / lightweight tuner and acorn style lugs will not work reliably.
They will work if you are careful and wiggle the wheel when you tighten them and check the torque regularly blah blah blah, but if you bring your car in for service and they remove one or more wheels, expect it to shake and / or fall off if you don't re-do it when you get home.
Not worth the hassle IMO
