Default Xxr 522 lug size?

Does anyone know what size lug nuts will fit the XXR 522 - it needs to be the type where it's tightened by the front, like a key or Allen wrench. The factory lugs definitely don't fit.

So price, size, type, brand would definitely be appreciated

Thread merged with the existing XXR thread.

I have never heard of a wheel needing a special lug other than the OEM's only able to work with OEM lugs depending on the wheel.

A set of aftermarket Muteki's should be able to work with these wheels..

you wouldnt want to use stock lugs on aftermarket wheels in the first place... Just go to Autozone and get the silver ones for now (12x1.25 for nissan)...

I've waited 3 months to get these things on. Finally got them mounted and this happens. Out of curiosity, why shouldnt stock lugs be used? Thanks

This is a good explanation why you should only use aftermarket lugs with aftermarket wheels:

Ya, I'm going to pick up some autozone tuner lugs and install them tomorrow if we don't get another hurricane or earthquake here in DC. I'll post pics ASAP once they're on. I've got to warn you, they're gold and I have a black Z. I'll be getting them powdercoated in the winter to a gun metal or matte black. I bought them in gold because I got them for $480

Just bought these. Ebay special haha Says exclusive xxr 526 limited edition in hyper silver. They also had bronze. Best part i thought was they arent universal lug pattern so looks a little cleaner. $758 shipped bought yesterday and already got tracking for it today. Can't wait for them to get here. Also wondering do i need a hub centric ring for these? Thanks.
