If you havent already purchased some go with nismo or H&R or arp if you can find the correct ones.

I love crappy information. Nismo is swiss cheese, absolute crap and they cost the most. Go here http://www.SPLParts.com and pick up some ARP's . They come in 12mmx1.5 though. If you already have some nice lug nuts then look for some peak performance studs.

That was completely unnecessary. All you had to say was "this is what i recommend instead..."

FYI: fitment on the rear hubs for the peak performance studs SUCK d!ck. PLUS they strip easier than a hooker on Donald Trump's bachelor party.

pix for prooof

scenario # 1this is what happens when the stud doesn't fit and go in the hub correctly. Me and my buddys spent a whole day trying to pound this damn stud in the hub. I lost a perfectly good hub because of this damn stud...



you can imagine the fun I had trying to take my lug nut off my wheels, when the stud spins with the lug nut.

scenario #2this is what smaller than small imperfection on a thread can do to an aluminum lug nut... (so far, I've managed to strip about 3 studs in my career with peak performance)



that was just for the rears tho. They fit like butter in the front hubs.
