go to a tire and wheel store, you want 12x1.5 thread, acorn seat lugs... probably small diameter - will make it easier to install them without damaging the wheels around the lugs... If you can find them, the best lugs I've ever used for aftermarket wheels are the splined gorilla lugs... http://www.gorilla-auto.com/small.di...lugs.and.locks and choose the ones on the left... do NOT get the hex key ones - if the lug nuts ever get weak, the hex part breaks on the lug nut, not the key... better to break the key...

I've had good experience with the Gorilla's as well.

Stay away from aluminum ones, they tend to strip more often. Once they do, it's bad news.

Will the ray's aftermarket lug nuts fit on my Linea Corse Lemans 19's?

I want to get them in red. Is there a specific size I would need? I'm not too familar with aftermarket lug nuts.
