Lug Nut Question
For which wheels?
Assuming OEM or A-Spec type wheels, you may know this, and if you do, I apologize, but the story below may be helpful
Getting wheel locks tripped up the eBay Acura dealer I used (Troy), and I had to send them a copy of the Acura Service News that detailed the differences. They were a little snooty at first, and then read the Service News I sent them, access courtesy of this great AZ forum, and quickly apologized, and sent me a replacement and paid for return shipping. But I digress as usual....
There are two styles of lug nuts for the 14 mm x1.5 lugs.
Acura RL Non PAX Wheel Lock P/N 08W42-SJA-200
Acura RL PAX Wheel Lock P/N 08W42-SJA-200A
The most common, non PAX wheel uses the style that looks like this convenient photo:

and the seat type is the so called Mag Seat, vs the Ball type that is used by the PAX wheels. See the Step #3 diagram at:

Now that you know what to look for, let us know what you find in the good looking lug nut area for the database.
My wheels are aftermarket, but still use the Honda Mag Seat. You will have to talk to your wheel supplier if you cannot immediately recognize the type of seat your aftermarket wheel uses.

If you have stock wheels, you'll want the 14 X 1.50 Honda/rounded lugs.
If you're aftermarket, more than likely you'll need conicals of the same size.
EDIT: Chas, you were typing at the same time I was.
