Default Need Help Choosing a Set of Lugs

Hey guys,

Bought varrstoens and im putting the on right now, but the guy gave me the wrong lug nuts and they don't fit. I also read that stock ones dont work with aftermarket rims. Where can I pick up a set of long lug nuts right now? I called oreilly parts and they only have ones that are an inch long, I think i need long lug nuts cuz the offset is +12. Thanks.

If you're so urgent then go get a set of mcgard splinedrives on Amazon and have them overnight it to your house.

You can check out local shops for lugs. Impex, Advance speed shop (i think that's the name), Promax, etc. These shops are in San Gabriel Valley though.

Never use stock lug nuts with aftermarket wheels. They've got different designs, and won't seat properly.

OP: If you want to order some lug nuts, we can overnight them to you but they won't go out until tomorrow. If you need them really urgently, I'd suggest getting the Mcgards from Discount Tire.
