    What Type of Lugnuts on the 3g?

    Well I plan on buying some Gorilla lug wheel locks for the Accord, however, I'm not too certain on the type of lug nut we have? There's all different kinds supposedly like acorn and buldge (which I think that's what we may have), conical, mag and shank. Which do we fit under? Thanks in advance!

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Re: What Type of Lugnuts on the 3g?

    Most aftermarket lug nuts are conical seat style which work fine for most aftermarket wheels. I don't know about the 3g wheels, but many oem honda wheels use ball seat lugs to keep the wheels nice and snug. When an alignment shop saw my prelude wheels with conical seat gorilla lugs, they told me to replace those asap with oem honda lugs to prevent the wheels from falling off on the highway.

    If someone has concrete info about the 3g wheels and lug nuts which safely work, please share.

    Yeah, I just wanted to see if anyone concurs with the ball seat lug. I think that's what the 3geez run, not positive however.

    Nothing's wrong with them, I just want to buy some Gorilla wheel locks and I want to make sure I have the right type of lock for my vehicle.
