[MENTION=19958]Clarkson[/MENTION] No, I used the tuner lugs from AM, and the wheel locks I use that fit are the Gorilla Guard Acorn Locks.

Did you try to use the stock ones or you simply use the tuner lugs? I was told by am that stock ones would work but are afraid that it wont lol

To be on the safe side, And to save myself the possible headache i just went ahead an bought the lugs, never tried the stock ones.

Still waiting to see these made in super bright silver or polished. As soon as I see either of these options, $$$!

I don't think they will. Here's a stock lug vs. a lug similar to the one AM sells for these wheels (the ones that are out of stock). Just bought them on Ebay and matched the measurements. As you can see the stocks are a lot wider and can't fit as deep into the bolt well as the tuner nuts.

I agree these wheels in a silver finish would be absolute money. I'm not sure if they have any plans to do so tho

I tried the stock ones and it fit like a charm.

how about a side view...

 

[ronnieb1958]

Yes, Delilah is very happy with her new shoes!

Specs:

Front: 19x9.5 275/35/19 Nitto Invos
Rear: 19x10.5 305/35/19 Nitto NT05
Springs are Eibach Pro-Kit

do you have a full side view?

 

[PRG3k]

Funny, I test fit them too and they didn't look to be sitting as deep as they were on the stock wheels. But I guess could be fine?

Hey guys, I got these wheels , 19x10.5" for the rear, can you help me out finding the widest tire that I can properly fit on them? Im looking at 305 35 Nitto Nt05r but I cant find the g2 in that size but let me know what you guys have installed on yours

 

[v8ter]

What way did they mount it from grabbing the outter or the inner ?

They grabbed the part where the tire covers the wheel, but seems like they get scratched real easy

Mine were 20s. And I have put those on a month ago

I've got charcoal 20" on a magnetic. Stock lugs worked fine. Only problem I had was my impact socket was too fat to fit without scuffing the wheel
