Longer lugs

Hey guys,

So I have the stock 19" forged rays and I got them redone due to major curb rash from the previous owner and was wondering what size lugs would you recommend I upgrade to that aren't obnoxiously huge. I want them to stick out enough to where I can put the socket on them without scratching/ruining the paint. Any suggestions or even pictures would be very helpful.

Thank you!

Best thing you can do whether you extend your lugs or not would be to buy yourself some wheel sockets with the plastic sleeve protectors on them. I've used them many times on my custom painted wheels and as long as everything is clean your golden. Major autoparts stores usually carry them, or just buy them on amazon. GearWrench is a good inexpensive set I've been using for a while.
