I just picked up some fno1rc's and my stock lug nuts wont engage enough thread to be safe on them. Am i suppose to get new lug nuts for them? If so which kind? I only tried to put on the fronts which are 17x7 +35 so I am thinking that i just need different lug nuts. If not then i suppose i will need longer wheels studs.

you shouldnt need new wheel studs, but id suggest picking up a set of gorilla lug nuts. theyre easy to use and offer a very small bit of security. you can get them off ebay, or from any discount tire.

yup you need Tuner lug nuts 12x1.25. Gorillas are nice, I also have kyokogen on another car, I think the Gorillas are built better.

That is the style to get. The are small outer diameter and the tuner lug key fits over the lug. The long lug key means your lug wrench is set out away from the wheel face, which means no scratching when working on the wheels.
