Unhappy HELP! Lug nuts are stuck, AGAIN

Hey guys ever since I got my G in Feb I've had issues with the friggin' lug nuts. The dealership I got it from didn't have the lock key from the previous owner and I always have to go through so much whenever I have to get something done that requires the wheels to come off.

I was upgrading my HIDs right now and this happened. The lug is stuck real good in there:



Can any of you guys send me a link to a set for for all fours that fits the stock G37s Coupe 2008 wheels.

You will make my day!

why don't you just go to the dealer and buy a set of factory wheel locks or just buy 4 regular factory lug nuts to solve your problem

Are you rolling on stock wheels? If so, they need mag style lug nuts. The lug nut in your picture is usually for aftermarket wheels. There is potential danger running those type of lug nuts with stock wheels. I've purchased and use non-oem mag lug nuts off ebay without issue for years.

Very unsafe as the conical seats will dig into your OEM flat seats and potentially shear off the mounting lip.
This is the type of lug nut you need w/ included washer
