lug nuts

jjdear13 · 07-28-2009, 07:40 PM

I am about to put some 2003 wrx wheels that i painted gold onto my 2008 impreza and i want some black lugs. I cant seem to find them with the flat bottom that is needed for the stock wheels, my question is, would running a tappered bottom lug effect anything?

Stock wheels use 60 degree taper lug nuts.

so would using a lug nut like Muteki be okay?

This. The stock wheels use a tapered jug. They are NOT flat.
