Default Are lug nuts car specific
Hi,

I was going to get a second set of lug nuts for my car and I was wondering if lug nuts are car specific or is a nut a nut.

It's best to buy high quality and use a torque wrench. OEM with always be OEM.
Clean the centres and hubs of any rust or aluminum debris and add very small amounts of ant-seize copper compound.
