Official Lug Nut Picture Thread
#131
Yea mostly all of the aftermarket lugs are 60 degree conical, so I'm assuming that's what you have?
and the stock lugs I pulled off of mine appear to be very close to, if not the same as the ones I just put on.
But I've looked into it a little bit and can't find anywhere that confirms that the seats on the stock wheels are 60 degrees so I couldn't confirm.

Any suggestions where I can find red (to match velocity red paint) lug nuts (+ lock and everything) to fit the standard R3 19" rims? Good quality nuts too; the older ones I had were painted red and the paint chipped away on the edges when I used a powerhead to take them off. I had the Rays that the OP has but to me (at least the ones I had) were more pink than red.

Well it's kind of hard to afford high end tires when your paying your own way through school. And as for the rusty center caps.... I actually don't have center caps on in the picture. The center caps that came with my rims are ugly so I was getting new ones at the time. This picture is a year old

Brush painted? Mine are direct from Japan, had the slight pinkish finish, so I bought a can of spray red anodize paint. Setup a long piece of wood with nails and sprayed them all with a light coating to give them a real red color.

Voids warranties
Thumbs up on the quality of tools though! Its hard to convince people outside of the auto trade that Snap-On is worth the price. I borderline refuse to use any other name.

I spent 4 years as a mechanic before going back to school. Still have a ton of Snap-On and Cornwell stuff. I need to find a local Snap-On dealer to have some things warrantied.
