Default PLEASE ANSWER! question about lug nuts...

I have Buddy Club P1 wheels on my 1995 Honda Civic. Today one mysteriously flew off and the rest loosened leaving me stranded 30 mins from home. Thats not a big deal. I honestly didn't care considering it was the day I cleaned my car and started a new project so my tools were in the garage for once. Well I'm never gonna buy American made lugs again for my car because they suck. And before I get flamed for this problem they were tightened properly. I'm trying to figure out why it happened but I believe I know already.

The question: Will the mugen lug nuts sold on JHPusa.com fit my rims?

Ya if ur lugs arent seated right then they wont tighten all the way. Are u using stock lugs on an aftermarket wheel? If so thats ur problem. Stock lugs are rounded at the bottom, while lugs for aftermarket wheels are tapered. Those mugen nuts u want should do the job

I currently have tapered tuner lugs. They are like a $25 set. I don't think the taper on them correct for the rim though. The Mugen ones will work for sure? I don't want to order $90 lug nuts and have them not fit.
