My apologies for posting this and then just dipping out! I am extremely happy with how my car looks, feels, and performs so I try and stay off this thing so I don't get tempted to make other modifications! You guys had some questions that were all answered correctly but I will summarize:
- Offset: +35F/+45R
- Tires: 245/35/20F 275/30/20R
- NO Fender Roll - NO Rub
- Offset: +35F/+45R
- Tires: 245/35/20F 275/30/20R
- NO Fender Roll - NO Rub
Good job on the ride! Very clean.

If know this thread is a little old but I'm looking to buy a set of these within a week or two and can't find the info I'm looking for. Figured I'd ask someone who has owned the same wheels. I asked Velgen if I could use stock lugs and wheel locks but they said I needed aftermarket ones. Can you point me to where I can get the lugs? I guess I'll need to buy new wheel locks too. I'm going with the hyper silver so I was hoping to be able to reuse my stock ones.

I put Muteki Neo-Chrome lugs on mine:
Amazon.com: Muteki 32905N SR Series Neon Chrome 12mm x 1.25mm SR48 Open End Lug Nut Set, (Set of 20): Automotive
They also make a set of locking lugs that you can get.

Here's some chrome ones
Amazon
They also come in black (but you'd have to get locks w/ this set)
Amazon.com: Gorilla Automotive 21123BC Small Diameter Acorn Black 5 Lug Kit (12mm x 1.25 Thread Size) - Pack of 20: Automotive
Might PM Rochester, he's a nice chrome McGard lug set.

jsampsell, I'm using the McGard, two-piece, spline-drive lug nuts. I was expecting to use lock-nuts, but figured the McGards by themselves are enough security. While the spline-drive design isn't that uncommon, you specifically need a McGard spline socket... so unless wheel thieves are well-equipped for all spontaneous situations, you're probably OK.
I like the two-piece design. Go read up on it, if you're interested.
And here's a lug-nut thread I used to help figure out what to get:

Thanks guys! I'm going to start my research since my old wheels finally sold. I'm just waiting on the manufacturer to get back from SEMA so that I can order them. I don't want to have them here and not be able to mount them so I'll be diving into this research this weekend. Thanks again!

So I'm wavering between the hyper silver and the matte gunmetal. I don't see any gunmetal colored lugs so I'm wondering if I should go with a black lug. Would black look weird on a gunmetal wheel? Thoughts?
