Default Rota Slips- what shape lug nut? ( lugnuts, acorn, tapered)

I searched and found many different answers.

It has come down to this- Stock acorns or Tapered

I read in one of the posts that someone called Cosmic, the makers of rotas and they said acorn. Yet a good number of people have been saying go out and buy different aftermarket lugnuts most commonly refered to as "tapered"

Once and for all someone provide a concrete answer. Please!

Tapered

stock will not sit right on the wheels, and damage your wheels, and may break a wheel stud as well

Pretty much ALL aftermarket wheels use the flat tapered wheel nuts. I have only seen one set of aftermarket wheels that use the round tapered Honda nuts, and that was a set of MOMO's.

just get some good aftermarket lugs

i suggest getting some muteki lug nuts, i have them and i love them
every lug is a lock lug so it adds security
