what lugs should i use for forgestar rims?

JYohay · 12-13-2012, 12:55 PM

i was sold my forgestars with a set of lugs that i found out to be too short.
i bought the same type that used a spline key but they broke off while driving on my OEM winters (i assumed i overtightened, but due to the fact that only 2 broke off inside and the other 3 straight up unthreaded and are missing i am not sure) so i do not want to use the same.

just wondering what other people use
are we able to use OEM?

OEM or stud conversion.
The OEM are cone seat like the Forgestar wheels.
I used the OEM on mine when I installed.
