Rays Lug Nuts and OEM type-s wheels?
Will these work along with the type-s wheels? Some say the bevilled end makes them not work...i want to put some red Rays lug nuts along with my type-s wheels and just making sure they fit before i spend $140

Good question. I lost 2 stock Acura 07 TL-S lugs. Guess what they cost me??? @ Acura???
Well if I paid the same for an entire set of 20, it would be $142.00
$7 for 1 lug is sick
But $20 for 1 little piece of plastic to cover a hole where a screw goes in for the license plate bracket is 666.

i don't think those lugs will work. i think rays and many aftermarket wheels use acorn shaped lugs and like jesstzn said, the stock ones are ball seat shaped. i mean u can put them on but u have to use the correct shape lugs to minimize vibration.
get a set of lugs off of fleabay for like 30-40$ shipped.

I believe the advantage of Rays lugs is the weight. Made of lightweigh aluminum. Save about 1/4 pound per wheel I guess? Plus they look nice. TOO pricey IMO.

I'm pretty sure almost 95% of aftermarket lug nuts in the market is for conical seat. I've held with my own hands Rays lug nuts, Muteki, Kyokugen, even the cheapie Rallye, and they're all conical seat. They're not recommended to be used with the OEM wheels.
