Default OEM lugs

Which one is the OEM Lexus lug nut? I have a box of lugs and trying to determine. Thanks.

neither! OEM lugs are mag-seat style, not acorn or ball-seat as shown.

And, wow, I've never seen them so big. They do actually have threads. In the photos, the threads must be filled with anti-seize.

Thanks. Oh boy! I may have sold my OEM lugs with the wheels. Now I need to hunt down a set to be prepared for the spare tire. I dont think the spare tire will work with the ones that came with my RPF1s.

Toyota uses weird shank nuts with washers - you can try to hunt them down at the junkyard or get a set from the dealer. There isn't quite a "perfect" aftermarket one out there.
