^^^ you are correct...my homie was gonna place some aftermarket lugnuts on his gsr clovers, but the guy at the shop sed that it wouldnt fit correctly...since either the lugnuts or the studs on the hub are more narrow than the other or vice versa...something like that

you CAN run aftermarket lugnuts on oem wheels as long as they taper, ive had kyokugens on my ls meshs for 2 years now with no problems. ive removed them numerous times. its the oem lugnuts that you shouldn't run on aftermarket wheels.

There are tapered ones and there are ones that are rounded. OEM ones are rounded.



The one on the right is the rounded kind. The other two have the straight taper.

And being that I work in a dealership and from what I have heard its best to match taper with taper and rounded with rounded.

I don't think it will make much difference in looks if you got the gunmetal ones.

And those are Spoon lugs that I posted.
