do tell....

why run oem lug nuts on a rim that has a lugnut seating surface that is different from the oem seating surface? on the oem lugnuts the seating surface is curved while on pretty much all aftermarket rims the seating surface is straight up conical, not matching up the shape of the seating surface = bad news

Why? Well, take a look at this thread here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2253116&page=1

There's also a video for proof to why you shouldn't run aftermarket lug nuts.

So the thread is, aftermarket lugs on OEM wheels.

That thread only serves to support the idea that you DO use aftermarket lug nuts on the wheels in question in this thread

As for the RX-7, that is way old news, and the incident in question was not a result of 20 aftermarket lug nuts all failing at the same time

I do believe they come in white. At least they have them in white here:
