That's what the OEM lugs look like.

And for comparison, this what a conventional tuner lug looks like.



Clearly you can see, with OEM lugs, you'd have to have the washer part sit flush against the lug seat where as the tuner lug does not have this feature. The result is that your tuner lug will constantly eat through the lug seat of the OEM wheel and eventually damage the wheel. This not only does not tighten the wheel correctly, but also will come loose over time.


I think you're like 10th person I'm trying to convince not to use tuner lugs on OEM wheels. lol

Good luck with your car.
You Sir... Are the shiit.
