should be fine just getting some spline drive lugnuts. You can get them at your local autoparts store, discount tire shop, or online at www.mcgard.com.

You can also get thin-wall socket drivers...

The splinedrives are a good idea tho.

I just ordered two sets of the ones on this page...

I have been using some cheapie ones from the auto parts store, but it is hard to find the 19mm ones -- most are the larger 21mm size (head size, not thread). I got a 19mm set with my wheels, but I galled a few of them at the track on my other wheels. My 21mm socket fits in the holes, but I'd rather use something smaller. The small size, light weight, black color, and not-quite-as-easy-as-regular-lugs-to-remove-when-stealing-my-wheels feature attracted me to the Kyokugen ones, so I thought I'd give them a try.

This is the best price I have seen anywhere for the Kyokugen ones, and it is nice to support a shop that serves the RX-7 market, rather than just a random import shop on the 'net. They have black and a silvery-gunmetal color, despite what the web site says. Call to order if you want to confirm the colors.
