Re: lugnuts<p>Their are a bunch of ways you can go. There are tons of choices in 12 mm and the JDM cranks those out. in 14 mm you have to look a little more. In you're using most wheels, OEM included, you need 60 deg taper seats, not ball type.<p>So you have a choice of materials:<p>1 - Normal steel, with various plating types<br>2 - High Strength Steel Alloy<br>3 - Aluminum<br>4 - Titanium <p>OEM are #1. On my FWD racer, I use #3 on the rear and #2 on the front drive wheels to save weight. The cost of #4 is out of reach.<p>The so called "Tuner Lugs" are ones with fancy heads. It is also easy to find locking type nuts too.<p>Just Google 14 X1.5 lug nut<p><br>
