Where can I find some good lug nuts?

[JohnW]

Hey all. Two sets of lug nuts came with my car. The ones that came on there were slim 'security' nuts that needed a special socket to get on and off. Those worked friggen great until today when I was putting my wheels back on and the socket broke while i was torquing the lugnuts down. Cheap piece of shit. I don't know what brand they are even so the chance of getting a replacement socket is slim to none. The other set that I have are too large (takes 19mm socket) to fit the socket down between the rim and the nut so I can only get them torqued on there hand tight, which sucks. I mean, they're on there but damn. So, I need to know where in town I could find some good quality lug nuts for a good price. They gotta be slim though, thats the shitter. Any ideas?

Or, looking online here I guess I can buy the socket. It's called a 'spline socket key'. Think maybe there is some tire or wheel store or even a really good tool store that might have something like that? Still looking for new lugs tho.

Try Tintmasters. I saw a set of imported lightweight nuts there one time, and they probably deal with specialty nuts all the time.
