how does the locking nut on a rays set work? Looks like the other one but with a groove on the side to me. Wouldn't socket that works for the normal lugs still be able to twist the locking one?

The LOCK nut is seven sided with a key slot. But don't get your hopes up ... any lock nut can be defeated. This just slows them down a little.

the ones on my lexus were 12 x 1.5. The extra .25 length shouldnt be a problem right, it should just stick out a little more which is ok bc it shouldnt stick out myuch from my wheels due to how thewy were made.

yea, the pitch is the spacing between the threads. so basically they are threaded differently, and you might mess up your studs using them
