Did some searching, but still wasn't clear. I know they need to be 14x1.5. Curious how deep they need to be? I think one of these two will work. What is everyone using? Amazon has a lot of options, but I don't want to buy junk.

I believe you need acorn style lugs. Either one of those should work. I have some similar to the top ones.

I found mine on line from a lug nut depot of some sort, don't remember the name... But they did include a thin wall socket that fits inside the factory lug nut wrench!

Thanks for the input. Yeah, acorn style with a 60* seat is what is needed. I just wasn’t sure if the shorter lug nuts would work vs the deeper style.

I have JMS Savage wheels and they use an acorn seat. I'm running ET style lug nuts, acorn seat with a shank. I've seen some complaints about bending and breaking studs due to the acorn seats, so I'm trying to combat that.

I use the ones that lethal posted above. No complaints just need to re torque them after driving a little bit when I swap wheels. Usually throw them on, drive around the block and re torque them. After that I’m good to go

Why would they not be for street use? I use similar ones on my street wheels and have never had a problem.

I swap between my vms wheels and my stock pp wheels. I use the same lug nuts, I just notice I have to re tighten them once I swap the wheels.
