WTB: Nice set o' Lug Nuts
Like the title says. Looking for a nice OEM set... not too beat up. I've looked at the ones on ebay:

but not sure if they will work?!

Re: WTB: Nice set o' Lug Nuts
for factory or aftermarket wheels? If you're sticking with the OEM wheels you need to use factory lug nuts. If you're going aftermarket then those eBay ones are fine.

Those won't work but I just received these ones today and they fit perfectly. They don't stick out as far as the OEM ones though.

The OEM lugs have a collar and washer on them, which is meant to provide the clamping force against the wheel. The cone types nuts will do the job, but are certainly not the recommended hardware to use.

Ok I see what you're saying. I have a spare set of the oem ones that aren't as shiny and nice as the cone type ones that are on there. I've been wondering if there was a difference. I think I'll put the oem ones on. The rims are in such sad shape that I doubt it'll make a difference in terms of looks.
