Default New lugs?

I have been looking at gorilla lugs for my rs 8.0 in red. Do I need the acorn 60* style or mag style?

I need to ask the same question.. They have a great website, i'll call them tomorrow. It looks like we need "Bulge Acorn" http://www.gorilla-auto.com/application-guide
I dont think you need Mags; but I dont have a RS. Take a lug off and compair it to a photo on there website.
I will follow up. Cause I need to order soon. I'll post what I find out.

I been doing some research and I've read that if you use a regular Acorn type that the OEM wheel holes are so large that the wheel can fall off. For an OEM wheel we or (I) will need to use the kind pictured below. They look just like OEM lugs. These can be used with a standard 21MM Socket. They do make a 'lock nut' that fit stock Toyotas but are very expensive. Gorilla Lug Source
