Lug Nuts

[woot woot]

Hey guys,
Tried to find a thread on the forum about it but somehow led to a stance thread lol.

Just need to know what size wheel nut will i need and does anyone have any recommendations? I have used Muteki in the past but have read some bad reviews recently. Anyone got a good one to recommend? I saw these from 949

But not sure if the will fit my Rays.

Cheers

12x1.5 is the correct size.

You need to find out what wheel seats the wheels have, weather it be 60 degree acorn seat, mag seats, or ball seats. Most likely acorn but it never hurts to check. Most lug nuts are decided due to style and preference. It will depend on how often you remove the lug nuts though. For instance I use steel lug nuts on the race car since the nuts will be removed more often and steel threads typically last longer then aluminum. I use aluminum on my street car though because they're not removed that often, and I like the style better. Typically the anodizing doesn't last as long on cheaper lug nuts either.

The seat is acorn for stock wheels and most aftermarket wheels.

I don't mind to bay a bit more, the amount of time that I remove my wheels and re-instal them on I need a good lug nut. And I want racing nuts because of race car lol

Like my 949s

949's are nice also

Thanks for the info guys. I decided to go with gorilla ones since they are steel and the name Gorilla just says it all in a name.

Amazon says that they will not match the Mazda 2 from the link that bigbluedart posted up above. Should i just ignore amazon?

 

[BigBlueDart]

Yes, just ignore Amazon. Those are the lugnuts that I currently have on my car.

I have used 2 different sets of Muteki ones and they have worked well. The coating comes off, but I have never seen any which don't have that issue.
