Lugs?

[LaCroix08]

I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I feel like I need to ask it.
I'm ordering a set of tenzo and they don't come with lugs, so I'm looking around for a set to order; they range from about 9$ to ~350$ for Rays. I just don't understand how there can be THAT much of a difference, so that's why I'm turning to you guys I'm sure you guys can help me? Thanks

McGards are good and not too expensive. Looks good too. The more expensive lugs... you're just paying for the name.

Good prices and choices from McGard. Got my black ones from there and they've held up well so far.

Those black ones look purdy.

This might be a really stupid question, but why can't we just use the stock lugs? I'm putting on a set of the Rays Mazdaspeed forged rims in the spring...will I need new lugs for them? If so, I have no idea if I should order black or chrome...do they make gunmetal to match the wheels?

A lot of aftermarket rims have a smaller space designated for each lug nut. ie- a impact socket won't fit in the hole to get onto the nut.

The lugs we're posting about are generally called 'tuner nuts'. They have a smaller diameter and use a special socket, which is skinnier, thus giving you the clearance you need to put your tool in the hole. That's what she said.

Hope that helps.
