Need lug nuts - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

OK I just got new Advan wheel SA3R's. They fit gine and they look great. The only problem is the lug nuts i'm using from my old wheels are too long, and I cant put the center caps on. I can't use the stock lug nuts because they're to wide. Anybody know where I can get a set of lugs that will actually fit??

on a side note kyokugens are excellent.

Yep i got a set very very similar to those. I bought um at the store that had kyogens but i picked the other brand because they didn't have the kyogens, but i think i'll go pick up another set to mix up the wheel locks

Koyukugen SUCK ASS. The fucking key use to strip on my old teg all the time. Many people complain of this too. Get the Zenki lug nuts, very light weight and strong as hell. Just make sure you NEVER use an impact gun with them or any other air tools on the lugs.

I got my Zenki lugs from GTPro. Remember to get them 12x1.25 thread pitch.

I dont have JDM lugs like everyone is suggesting, but i do have McGregger Spline Drives. they are strong, skinny, short, wont rust, and they double as lock lugs because they require a key. IMO these are great.

I just went to my local Pepboys and picked up some open-top lugnuts. Then picked up some locks that are open-top also. I will try to post up some pics for you

I have the same ones.. kind of annoying having to keep track of two different keys, but they work awesome, and when you have some JDM Bling wheels, you need all the protection you can get from those damn theives.

Yeah, I have heard nothing but bad stuff about Kyokugens because of the stripping. Sam's price is a little steep on them too. I think you can get them for around $40 or $50. Look on groubbuycenter.com because a bunch of companies sell them with the wheels they are selling for a good price. It's mostly Honda stuff so you'll have to let them know which thread you'd want.
