Default Best (skinny) Tuner Lug nuts - had enough of the cheap chrome AutoZone lug nuts?

You can buy them right here

These will fit some aftermarket wheels with skinny lug holes

You will need 20 for the tC which is 5 packs...

EDIT: this is not for your stock wheels.... only get these if your aftermarket wheels wont take anything but these:

These no name no brand chrome looking lug nuts are too short... no color and gets rusty fast.

And the only one you can get in Autozone/Pepboys and other car shops

So the Titek one I posted is almost the only other option you have.

( there is a VisionWorks lug nuts almost the same but i cant find them)

No. You need washer style lugs for stock rims. These are conical.

if you are 26 why do you need to skip meals to be able to buy these? why only 10?

It sure looks like I need them to me?
Thanks for your concern tho good looking out. The chrome lug nuts were sent to me from Dezod, they are also 12x1.5 size with a 60 degree taper. The black RPF1s on my car are the DG 17x8.5...

I can't use regular nuts on the rpf1s they have to be 60 degree taper. So why get all 20 the same size to keep it all uniform, even when i'm not running the drag wheels??? Why not?

i got my new lugs... looks SOOO MUCH BETTER than those chrome tuners in my first post.

btw these are not the titek ones. really similar but not that super long ( still longer than the regular chrome tuner lugs but not too much... the old lugs where flush with the holes, only problem: i cant find these ANYWHERE online)
