Lugnuts

Sup guys, I have a question. Can I use aftermarket lugnuts on our stock rims? I am in the process of painting my stockies and I want to use something other than chrome....Thanks. BTW I will be selling my rims with tires when I get my stockies done.

no. you should use stock lugs for stock wheels. aftermarket lugs for aftermarket wheels. it's the shape of the lug.

Not quite I have had aftermarket lugs on my car for two years with no problems. Aftermarket ones come in both bottom shapes just pick the correct ones and you will be fine. Take a lugnut into the shop with you and they can tell you which ones you need.

OEM Honda lugs and rims are usually BALL SEAT. Most aftermarket rims and lugs are CONE SEAT. If you can find some aftermarket BALL SEAT LUGS then sure why not.
