OK, I got my new rims today (me like), sold the Mille Miglias to CLUofI.
The new rims have the universal lug pattern (4x114.3 & 4x100)
Not crazy about the 8 holes, but without 5 lugs, i had no choice with this rim.
Anyway, the holes are much smaller in diameter and this wheel package did NOT include lug nuts like my last one did

So is it TUNER lugs I need to get?!?! If so, what size?

The only thing I remember marked on the old lugs I had was "1.50 RHT", but those would be too big to fit in the holes anyway.

Plus now I have to get new wheel locks also, they're too wide to fit in the holes. And I have a thin wall socket for my torque wrench that I won't be needing anymore either
I sent an e-mail to tirerack last week and they haven't got back to me yet.

So if anyone can point me to a place online that carries the lugs I need and also some wheel locks, it would be much appreciated

Anyone with lug knowledge?

this is where I got the skinny lugnuts that I needed for my rims since the holes were so damn tiny. They have really skinny long lug nuts that you can use, just click on products/accessories/lugnuts in the left menu.


Also when I got my rims the rim company sent me the wrong set of lugnuts that were too fat for my new rims so I bought a set of polished skinny lugs from a local rim shop for like 30 bucks. Each one is like a wheel lock because you need the key to take off each of the lugs. I used these for about a week until the company sent the lugs that say arceo on them (brand of my rims). I will sell the ones I used for a week for $15 plus shipping (its roughly a 2 lb package for all "16 lugs + key".) I believe this is considerably cheaper than most shops will charge you for 16 wheel lock lugs.

the thread is 1.5x12, or at least it is on the accord.

Thanks guys

Indeed it is the TUNER lugs I found out I need (the thin ones)

delux, I'll keep you in mind if I don't hear back from the places I've inquired to.

Jamz,

I got a set of tuner lugs that I bought and couldn't use with my Konig Rims, If you want we can get you those tuner lugs at a reasonable price plus shipping. I don't have locks though, I never couls find any slim enough to fit in my wheels.

PM me or shoot me an email to dajucie27@btstelevision.com

i have the racing hart s7's. . . make sure you get LOCKS. so don't want to get jacked. the gorrila grip locks are nice, they should fit with that lug pattern. it's nice because each key is one of a kind. so their hard to steal. the spiners are also nice. they are not one of a kind but if you mix and match your lugs it shouldn't be a problem.

Jamz

Thanks fellas

Dennis, I saw your new rims, won't you be needing tuner lugs for those? If not, I'll also keep you in mind if I have trouble getting them.

Hey TeamBlurryCL, do you have any pics of your CL? it sounds real nice

Jamz,

I got another set, so the ones I am offering to you, you can get right now. Just send me 15$ and i'll send you the whole set. I have another set that the guys at the tire shop gave to me when they installed my Konig's in October.
