Default Question about lugs?

I have the OEM 16inch wheels on my car now but I just bough a set of 17inch OEM rims. Now do I need new lug nuts or can I just use the ones off the 16inch ones. Thanks

Some of the best lugnuts I've ever used are made by Gorilla (www.gorilla-auto.com). They have lugnuts for both aftermarket and OEM wheels. Through resellers, the cost should be around $30 or so for a SET (20 Lug Nuts) standard lugnuts (no locks).

You can try www.summitracing.com (they carry a lot of Gorilla products) but MAKE SURE TO CHECK AND DOUBLE CHECK YOUR ORDER to make sure you're getting the right thing.

FYI, the thread pitch (on at least the GS/IS/ES/SC/LS) is 12x1.5


....$10 per lug....someone needs to be slapped for that price...

I like mcguard lugs (i think i typed it correct). They are unique and also are pretty cool protecting against theft.
