19" G37 sport rims lugnut question'

Anyone know of an alternative to the shouldered style oem lug nuts that are required for the OEM 19" G37 sport rims? I currently have some short open ended muteki nuts on them.

How are those mutekis working for you? I have g37 19's/wheel spacers and a couple of my wheel locks got stripped. I need to look for an alternative.

Question though, I thought you couldn't use after market lug nuts on oem wheels?

word is it's not safe, especially with lugs that are too short.

but I think "w0ady" is using gorilla on his and has not had a problem, you may want to hit him up about it.

Here's info I posted on another thread. I'd stick with 1.25. These are cheaper and I just put them on; works fine.


Newer shank style lugs

Yea' i thought the 1.25 was the length and not the thread spacings.

The G37's require a flat seat nut.. it's weird, kind like the old mag style..

Would I be able to use my 07 g35x lug nuts and wheel lock on a set of g37 rims on my car? Or do I need to be specific lug nuts that's made for the 37?

Not sure, but I bought a set of the lugs that were suggested a few post up and they worked like a charm.
