I'd say yes and no...depends on the wheel. You'd be better off buying aftermarket lugs to be safe. Most aftermarket wheels take a tapered style lug. Honda stock lugs are rounded, rather than tapered. Only wheels I can think of that would take a rounded tip, would be Spoon wheels.

Make sense?

IMO if you are paying for aftermarket wheels, you may as well fork over the extra few bucks for the appropriate lugs. Not a worthwhile way to save money.

Volk is tapered (basically what you need)...anywhere from 120 to 140 bucks (set) depending on which shop you order from!

So when I order new wheels...they should be able to tell me what lugs I need?
Or would the wheel web sites have that info?

The company you order em from should know....or they should not be selling wheels. Just ask them, but odds are you're gonna need tapered lugs.

If you order from tire rack they will include lugs with your order. I was very pleased with my ordering experience with tire rack.
