| Remember that wheel locks are only a deterrent; make sure that your wheels are covered by your insurance policy just in case. |

i think it should be 12x1.5.
i'm interested in this topic as well ...
the big ones that i know that most people use are:
muteki
rays
works
project kics
gorilla
mcgard
then you have some more exclusive ones out there.
check out this link for a decently big selection of lugs:

thanks for the link. I guess its time to be picky. Im looking for either black or red lugs with a "floating nut"or "rotating taper-seat" at the end so they dont scratch the wheel paint off inside the lug seating area.
Ill post if I find any. Keep the info coming.
