    Post Aftermarket Lug Nuts?

    Just a quick question for everyone:

    Can I use aftermarket lug nut on my oem wheels? All the manufacturers state that it is not for use on oem wheels but since my oem chrome lugs are a bit rusted I wanted to get some new colored lug nuts for my brand new (well new to me) mazdaspeed shinka rims, which I will use next summer!

    Thanks for the help to those who will reply

    bumping up this thread for a different reason:

    has anybody used or heard of spec d tuning lug nuts? They look like a knock off of the Rays ones but look somewhat promising considering they claim that they are annodized...

    Garage 16 has them. Saw them in person. The ones Rick showed me seemed a bit too long and fatter but I think there may be a thinner one that he's selling. PM him. Personally I liked the NRG ones he had.
