They are good. But maybe you might wanna invest in some anti-theft lugs so they don't get stolen

i do have oem locking lug nuts but i also work at a shop and know how easy it is to remove anytype of lugnut. if a theif wants it bad enough, he's goin to get it.

so the whole acorn type style lug nuts dont really matter? all i ever had were oem wheels. first set of aftermarketers

tuner lugs are better but if you just drop money on oem ones why not use it. do you plan on using it as mainly a dd or track too?

I'd use acorn/conical nuts. Chances are the DRAG wheels don't use ball-seats.

if you do track, i would recommend to get tuner lugs since they make more contact.

yea. even if you're going to be all cheap about it, you can atleast get some cheap ones like muteki lugs or gorilla lugs. they arent too expensive. just 35$ +
