One night found car on bricks after alarm went off.
Bought Honda Lock nuts for $60 and they are twice the weight of a regular lug nut. So they thru off the balance and my car has this annoying vibration now at all speeds.

I need set of lugs for my stock rims, most deff with a pattern that not any wheel thief can get off. I heard most Lug Nuts out there from Works and other makes are strictly for aftermarket wheels and they are tapered.

So what do I do?

Ohh darn, wrong forum?

 

i dont think the lug nut threw it off, its more of your wheels not being balanced... but 12x1.5 is what you mean i believe

 

Lugs back on and it doesnt vibrate any more. I've heard Honda USA uses cheap Lock Nuts and UK/Japan didn't so there was even a group buy on here on them back in the day. At least that is what I was told before.

But I am 99.9% sure its the lugs, prior to me installing locks I had no issues. Wheel weights not missing and all in place as well.

 

wheels weights not missing but dont mean its balanced.. off balance wheels will cause vibrations

 

yes, also check your torque settings. I never had a problem with my honda wheel locks either.

 

i agree. not to mention the lug nuts cant throw off balance that much, and they're placed so close to the center of the wheel it will throw it off even less...?

 

all torqued to 80foot pounds
