Default Quick lugnut question

Will tuner lugnuts work on 99-00 SI (SiR Canada) wheels?

Thanks

I love it when people don't bother looking in the FAQ, because then I can make fun of them for overlooking it.

Stickied at the top of this forum, where only the most clueless couldn't find it , is the topic:

Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING

It says:

What lug nuts do I need?

The "seating area" (or "seat") is the area of the lug nut, and the area of the wheel, that come in contact with each other. <FONT SIZE="4">Stock Honda/Acura wheels</FONT> have a ball/radius/spherical shaped seating area, and need lug nuts (such as stock lug nuts) which also have the same shaped seat. Aftermarket wheels use a tapered/conical/cone shaped seating area and need lug nuts <FONT SIZE="4">(including most tuner lug nuts)</FONT> which also have the same shaped seat. No, it is not safe to mix and match (stock wheel with tapered lugs or vice versa); the contact between the lugnut and the wheel will be insufficient, putting undue stress on them and potentially causing failure.





The threading spec for our lugs is 12x1.5
