Are you saying that the Duraluminum's are not that flat washer style lug? Shariff is the one who recommended that I get the Duraluminum's, which is why I wanted to clarify whether I would have any issues with replacing the current lugs. I should get back my rims in about a week and a half, so I guess I need to order those lugs asap. If you do not care for the Duraluminum ones, what would you recommend Chris?

Thanks for the tip. That is what I was concerned about, how many rotations of threads I "should" have.
