Lugnuts with rotas?
My friend just got some Rota Slipstreams for his civic, but needs to get some lugnuts. What brand will fit correctly (sit right) with those rims? Recommendations from those that have slipstreams?

Re: Lugnuts with rotas? (greebler)
I was running some skunk2 lightweight extended studs. They were light as hell, almost as if they were made of plastic. I didn't like how they didn't need a key. So I replaced them with a set of kyokugens. As long as you use a torque wrench and only torque the lugs down to 70-80 lb. ft you shouldn't have any problems with the key stripping.

I researched this and went with black Gorilla lugs.
Haven't installed the wheels yet. Still working on the GSR swap

Thats what I have and they look great and the price is awesome, plus they are close ended not like the kyokugren.
