Custom lug nuts
I'm looking for a set of lug nuts for my new wheels, and not sure what size they are.
I'm looking for a set of either Red anodized of Black lug nuts to match my new Giovanni wheels[red anodized rim, black wire mesh centers]. thanks "Moon'

Yep, I bought black ones off eBay last week. Almost went with the red from the same seller. HHR studs are 12x1.5. Just type in HHR lug nuts in the search.

These are the red anodized ones I bought. Real happy with the look, but the finish is not super durable. Have to be careful when rotating tires! I like the splined outer surface, makes them a little more theft-proof.
I bought them from the website shown here, but another member said you can get them cheaper thru Summit Racing.

Gorilla lug nuts, I personally use "The system", closed end, powder coated in semi-gloss black (not the black chrome).

When it comes to lug nuts you get what you pay for. There is only 1 key made for each set and if you want another key, you have top
send off the specific numbers with your set to gorilla to get one.
I look at it this way, are the thieves going to waste time taking 20 wheel locks off to get my wheels or get the guys wheels next to me that has 1 lock or none. Sure someone could take mine, but easier is faster for a thief.

Thanks for all the input guys. I ordered lug nut set off of E-bay this afternoon, and also a set of hub centric rings. Putting new wheels on Tuesday[will change out lug nuts, when we do the Pedders springs in a week or so.].
