Default Quick lug nut question!

I just bought some gsr fat fives from a member on here, and I have a quick question, yes I have searched but to no avail. I have a 93 civic hb by the way, the question is whether or not I will need to get different lug nuts than stock to mount the gsr fat fives? Thanks!

Awesome! Appreciated greatly! I was just worried I may hurt the wheels or something, or maybe they would come off, I dunno. Anyway! Thanks!

P.S.- 200 posts!

i would get locks on them anyways.. but thats your call.. and to save yourself your next thread.. DOnt get tuner style ones.. they suck.. get some gorrila lugs, or a 7 sided lug.

honda wheels don't normally take the same flat tapered lugnuts as most other wheels. I would make sure the lugnuts you use are oem.

I am not saying they won't fit. I am saying they won't seat properly because the taper is different.

you CAN use them, but they will not seat right due to having a different taper on the end. it can damage the wheel and/or cause them to fail
