Default lug nuts for rota's

i have a 93 cx hatch with 15" slipstreams and the stock lug nuts dont fit. i need to know where to get a good set of tapered lug nuts at a good price. (cant afford spoons @ $140 a set.) also am running 205/50/15 kumho ecsta supra 712's and they rub the fenders even after raising it almost back to stock height and realigning it, any tips?

I got some muteki lightweight security lugnuts from a guy here on hondatech called EvasiveMotorsports. He is a hondatech sponsor and he's selling them for $32 SHIPPED. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=770764
hope that helps

I picked up a set of Kyokugen lightweight security lug nuts off Ebay, work great and super light.
I have a set of 205/50R15 on my slips with no problems. 2.5" drop. But I did have to roll the lip of the fender a little. Took a total of 10 seconds to do with my hand.

I bought black zenki lugs and the color wore off within 2 weeks. Luckily it turned to a bronze/copper color and it doesnt look too bad with bronze circuit 8's.

if you get kyokugen be sure not to let anyone use an air gun on them.. my key stripped after les schwab put them back on.. had to have one lug cut off and it ruined one stud. good time for extended wheel studs but really you can get the gorilla open or closed end lugs from any automotive shop i believe.. i don't know where you are though.

I've got to say that's strange that your stock lug nuts don't fit. I've got a '94 CX with the slipstreams and the stock ones worked fine. Are your lugs or studs stripped or previously cross-screwed?

its not that they didnt fit they fit much lower in the rim and there is not enough area on the nuts to put a lug wrench on. any how about rolling the lip of the fender, how did you do that?
