Don't use OEM lugs with aftermarket wheels. Look through classifieds or the Sponsor marketplace for a good deal on tuner lugs.

If by acorn you mean conical or tapered seat, then that's correct. If instead you mean the more typical usage of the term "acorn" here on H-T (which is ball or "Honda" seat), that's incorrect. The Group N's don't use a lug nut with the same style seat as the factory Honda wheels.

acorn wedge? wtf is that?
to answer the original question, you want a 60 degree tapered lugnut. that is the lugnut of choice for most aftermarket wheels. acorn lugnuts are for STOCK wheels only.

i think he's talking about the kyokugen's. the lightweight lug nuts that have a key that is easily stripped. the open ended muteki's are good and come with a steel key.
if you don't use an impact gun and instead, use a torque wrench then you will be okay with virtually any lug key.
