Any "tuner" style lugs will work. I prefer steel ones compared to alumminum, even though they are heavier because they usually last longer and if your car is in a shop (mine never is), it is less likely they will get messed up from being over torqued. Aluminum will work fine too but make sure you buy high quality ones, steal, you can go cheaper.

The threading spec for our lugs is 12x1.5

You'll probably need a conical seat lug nut like the one below for most aftermarket wheels:

If you plan to install the C2 cap you'll have to get the shorter tuner lugs, but if don't care about the caps you can use the standard size tuner lugs.

thank you for understanding my question... but yeah thats what im worried about. the tuner lugs i have are too long for the dish's to fit properly...

do you think these will be short enough?... the seller didn't specify the length...

No these are what you need bro. I used them on my old Racing hart M5's and Axis mods. You'll need this if you plan to use your center caps. You can find them cheaper on ebay also for like $40 or so. You need size 12mm X 1.50 if you did not know.
