Vossen CV3 **Wheel nuts**

I know it's an odd question, but I have a set of cv3 on order and wanted to know from anyone with them which wheel nuts can be used with them?
Can I use my original wheel nuts or do I have to purchase other ones?
Any help would be great thanks!!

I'm not sure if this applies to Vossen, but for my Forgestars, I had to get 19mm wide acorn-type lug nuts M14 x 1.5 from the tire shop where I had my tires mounted. The stock lug nuts are too big to fit into the hole.

Almost all aftermarket wheels have tapered-shaped nut seats, in contrast to the OEM Honda/Acura wheels which have ball-shaped nut seats.

So aftermarket wheels must use acorn nuts, and OEM Honda wheels ball-seat nuts.

Don't mix them, or risk of ruining the nut seats on your expensive wheels.
