    Never satisfied
    So i jus picked up a set of the procomp steelies..the 52 series. Now i know the lug holes are like a flat surface, and i totally forgot to buy some lugs for it..would it be fine to run lugs with acorn end?? (as they call it tuner lugnuts) because i have a extra set when i had 22s. Or should i jus get the correct ones with the flat surface at the end. I know maybe a bunch of you had or have these wheels so anything can help, pics too :D

    Thanks

    If the wheels take shank and washer (mag) style lugs then you should not run conical seat lugs. The contact area will be very small and lead to greater stress on the wheel.

    Also, acorn lugs, or conical-seat lugs, are not the same as "tuner" lugs. Tuner lugs is the slang for spline-drive lugs (as opposed to hex-drive), regardless of the lug seat type.
