What Lug Nuts do you use and which socket? I was told by someone at Vossen that they dont supply lug nuts, but to get 19mm lug nuts and to use 19mm socket + breaker bar.

So i tried the 19mm lug nuts and they fit BUT, the 19mm socket doesn't even fit in the hole (where the lug nut would be placed into) so i cant even screw it and tighten it in.

Very frustrating bc i had these wheels in my house for 2 weeks now and want them on my car already!!

That is with any set of aftermarket wheel. You should go to Sears and look for the craftsman 19mm "thin wall" sockets. Make sure you get the long socket.

I got the 19mm deep impact socket aka the long one, but i dont think its thin wall socket.

Ill check it out tomorrow..hopefully that does the trick

Cool, you shouldn't have a problem with getting them to spec sitting on the S techs.

kind of off topic... i have the NF210... should i be able to get car aligned to specs? the place was saying camber in rear is off and cant be adjusted

I just got the VVS CV1's, the machine and matte black version. They look wicked, ill be posting a bunch of pics soon, once my springs settle and I get the car waxed...

alignment will still be off. Not as much as a DF210 but it will run through tires faster than the stock height for obvious reasons. The only spring I have seen that you can get the outside of the factory specs on alignment would be the H techs but they barely even lower the car.

Are you running a staggered set up or even width all the way around??? The tire wear will be slightly better if you do the same width but the staggered set will look better and more aggressive

im running staggered... 245's in front and 285's in rear
