I just bought a set of CSL replica wheels that came from EAG.
Where can I get some Lug nuts for these wheels? What is the correct lug nut I need to get?

Is this the size I need?
12mm x 1.50 RH, Conical seat - 45 degree
If so, where can I find these lugnuts at? I tried searching the web with no luck.

Maybe it'll help, maybe it won't? Its a common lug nut size maybe they could hook you up.

So, is it safe to just use the stock lug nuts on the CSL wheels?

They are BMW wheels and the BMW lug bolts have a 60° conical seat.
Those gorilla lugs should work.

Does it matter if the lugnuts are closed-ended or open-ended?

Yeah. If those gorilla lugs are 1.36" deep though, that should be enough.

for a street car with exposed lugs, youll most likely want a closed lugnut to keep the threads from getting rusty, plus they typically look better. Unless youre required to have open ended lugs for racing, you should be fine with those.

Alex, I'll swing by ur place when i get the wheels mounted. I just installed the LSS and GMM shifter. I want u to drive the car to see if u like it.
