I have Buddy club p1 racing wheels on my 99 civic si,

Wheel specs are 15x6.5, 4x100.

My question is I'm trying to put these lugs on the wheels:

Lug specs: 20mm wide, and 60mm long. 12x1.5

My question is does anyone know if these will fit on my car with these wheels??

Conical straight taper seat. Yes, they should fit, assuming they were manufactured correctly.

What do you mean "Conical straight taper seat"?

Conical straight taper seat

Conical - of or pertaining to a cone. Cone shaped.
Straight - having no bends or curves. "A straight line".
taper - gradually decreasing in size toward a point.
seat - The surface or part on which another part sits.

It's the part of the nut that sits on the wheel (the seat). It's a conical (as compared to round, like OEM is) straight (...as compared to round, like OEM is), taper (as compared to straight, like some EDM studs are).

TL;DR - it refers to the shape of the nut seat.

The issue is, my stock si wheels were acorn/tapered, I'm not sure if my buddy club p1 can use those lugs, I'm assuming I can, but don't want to waste time/money, can anyone confirm for me if they will?

Does your nut look this this?



Or like this?



I just double-checked the Honda parts catalog, and stock SI wheels should use acorn nuts, in the first picture. That's the same nut used by factory steelies. Acorn nuts should NOT be used on aftermarket wheels (like the Buddy Clubs you mentioned in the OP), and straight taper nuts should NOT be used on OEM wheels.

The 2nd ones. But there's no open hole at the end they're closed. I had acorn nuts on my stock wheels, and when I put the buddy clubs on, I used the same lugs, they're blue acorn nuts. I'm trying to figure out if the ones I posted originally will work.

ih8speedbumps

They don't have that black ring on it. I know stock are suppose to be acorn, but the same ones I used from stock wheels to the buddy club wheels, idk if the ones I posted wil work and I really don't wanna waste time or money :/

I'm thinking maybe it was the first one you posted, if you look at the second picture in my post above it looks a lot like the rear-end of the picture,

Regardless, do you know if these will fit on my wheels?

Wheel specs: 15x6, 4x100,

Lug spec: 20mm in width, 60mm in length. 12x1.5


SORRY IF IM BEING REPETITIVE AND/OR SOUND STUPID, I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT LUGS :/

Anyone?

The top of the lug nuts you posted mean absolutely nothing. The only part that matters is the SEAT. You're making this much harder than it needs to be - stop and use your brain. All of the information you need has been given to you.

ih8speedbumps

That's the thing, I could tell you almost anything about my engine, trans, suspension, etc, but I know NOTHING about lugs other than honda/Acura is 12x1.5 usually, Sorry for dragging this out, but I just have no idea if they'll work. From what I know, these lugs on my wheels (Buddy club p1 racing wheels) are acorn lugs, I MAY be wrong. But from what you posted, the acorns shouldn't be on my aftermarket wheels, which makes sense, but you also said the other lugs shouldn't be used on stock wheels. But I used these same lugs from stock wheels, to buddy clubs, the reason I don't know what they are is I bought the car with the stock wheels and those lugs on it.

If nobody has a answer for me that's fine. I don't know much about lugs, so ill just figure it out somewhere else, thanks for your guys help, but if anyone has a deffinate answer, please let me know.

most all aluminum wheels use conical style.

Steel wheels mostly use the ball end acorn style.


definitive enough?

ih8speedbumps

I don't understand the whole "Conical, Straight, Taper, Seat", The lugs I'm looking at say "Extended Tuner Lugs"

They are 20mm wide and 60mm long, 12x1.5

Well, could you tell me what kind of lugs work on Buddy Club P1 Racing Wheels?

Or just tell me if these will work?

This is getting boresome.

Yes, they will work on the Buddy Club wheels.

Remember when I said "stop, and use your brain"? Well, if you don't know what kind of seat your current lug nuts have, common sense would say "take one off, and LOOK AT IT." Which part of acorn lug vs straight taper lug is confusing you? One has a rounded seat (shaped like an acorn, thus the name), the other has a straight taper seat (straight, flat, and tapered, thus the name). It's really that simple.

ih8speedbumps

I'm sorry. I know NOTHING about lugs, it was the first time I've ever heard those terms. I don't know much about lugs. Thanks for your help, sorry for "boring you" and not "using my brain" .. Thanks a lot , your info has helped critically.
