It says a lot about your wheel collection when you're winter steelies are the most attractive wheels you own.

I'd go with OEM because the seats on most colored lugs won't fit OEM wheels. OEM wheels require a ball seat where as most colored aftermarket lugs are conical.

None! Those lug nuts are not meant for factory wheels the seat on them is different. Hence the reason you have to buy aftermarket lugs when you buy aftermarket rims.

Yea its sad I know. Getting new rims is kinda low on my list right now. I will prob be selling all 4 sets to get something else.

Thanks though. I didnt think those rims were going to turn out that good...
