looks good. i replaced all my lug's with black one's. make sure you put a new lug nut wrench in the trunk if i remember correctly the stock one is 21mm. the new one's are 3/4 inch.

No its not a stupid question, if you noticed I originally opened this thread back in 2010 but I never purchased lugs because I couldn't find any small enough to fit the diameter of the hole on my tuner wheels until now.

ok so you are saying that 12x5 will fit our aftermarket wheels? but do I need to then purchase a new wrench to remove my wheels?

12x5 will fit thread but also need small diameter lugs for hole size.
