DO NOT USE AFTERMARKET LUGS ON YOUR STOCK SPORT OR BASE WHEELS

Unless you want to replace your fenders like I had to when my wheels fell off. I learned the hardway that stock wheels use mag lugs that hold the wheel on through the an outer ring. The inner ring is weak and thin and will not hold your wheel on if you only use that. Here is what it did to my rim, the lug went completely through the rim making a hole.



And here are why the mag lugs are different, they have a cone at the bottom and flat on the outside so they are very secure.
