Lug Nuts

Need New Lug Nuts for my 2012 G37. I put this information into Google and a bunch come up. I'm not sure which set I need. Is there a size that I should be looking for or any other information? Thanks.

OEM wheels or aftermarket?

OEM are flat-washer style, and there aren't many options out there. Aftermarket have a tapered seat, and there are countless options.

It should be noted that tapered/conical should never be used with oem wheels. While the thread may be the same, the seat is much different.

Without additional info, the proper thread is M12mm x 1.25.

As far as I know everything is original on my car. I'm saying that because I bought it with14000 miles on it. So probably the lug nuts are OEM. I'm not sure what more information you may want?

I think this is what you need then - https://www.myg37.com/forums/private...-qty-10-a.html . Should point you in the right direction.

Recommend going OEM.

If you do need the OEM style, I highly suggest the Z1 1-piece version (https://www.z1motorsports.com/z1-pro...ck-p-7418.html)

The OEM ones can warp, especially when hit with many ugga duggas

Very nice!! I didn't know that Z1 offered OEM-style lugnuts in chrome and black.

Why do you need/want new lug nuts? Perhaps that would be part of the answer...

Do you have stock wheels or aftermarket? Stock wheels NEED oem lug nuts and aftermarket wheels take the tapered style lugs.
If your car has such low miles, why do you even want new lug nuts? Are they all chewed up from whatever shops worked on the car? I've had a couple "affordable" shops tear up my nuts cause they don't pay attention. Needless to say I try to do everything myself if I can unless I need them balanced or an alignment or new tires.
