Default Waxing new rims and which cheap lug nuts...

So I bought some ADR's just for fun cause they were cheap. Not expecting the best. To protect the finish a little better, should I wax them before I mount them? They're brand new so...

also, would the stock lug work for a bit or should I get aftermarket lugs. Any particular (conical seat degree) style i need other than 1.25 12mm?

The rims are black with polished lip and I'm toying with red lugs. Any thought? For a black wrx so...

I have BBS's for racing and what not and I wanted some 17's for daily trashing since I just put some coilovers on and 16's look a lil funny.

Spline drives are good. Go with McGard.

Don't cheap out on lugs... cheap ones like the ones I had before my McGard splinedrives were rusting away...
