just make sure you're not putting after market lugs on stock wheels.
all i know is that i have been looking for some new lugs lately as well, and stock wheels only take a "ball seated" lug nut. if you mix after market lugs and stock wheels......say good bye. they will fly off.

but if you have after market wheels then you should be fine.

rays make some badass lugs. and also a company called mutegi or something like that. i saw those last night.

hope it helps

I'm rocking a set of the Volk Racing Formula lugs in blue. I used to have a set of Project Kics R40 before the Volks.

Grats you just ruined your S2 lugs. Go remove one of them & you'll see what I am talking about.
