Lug Nuts for Konig Helium Wheels?
Hello,
For those of you who have Konig Heliums on your Yaris, do the factory Toyota lug nuts work with them or did you need to buy different lug nuts? If you had to buy new lug nuts, are they "Acorn" or "Acorn with bulge"? My factory 15" steel wheels came with a short acorn style. I believe the thread is 12mm x 1.5. I've seen some "tuner" lug nuts available, but all I really want is a simple chrome lug nut like the factory nuts. I just test fitted one wheel and the factory lug nuts seem to fit OK. Just looking for a second opinion. Thanks, Mike ![]() edit: Nevermind. I found out I needed the "Acorn with bulge" nuts for the Konigs. The factory lug nuts won't work well with the Konigs. Thanks for looking. Mike

Well, have you try to insert your ratchet socket inside the hole of your wheels. I mean, on my friends Toyota Paseo, when he change his wheels for some Enkei wheels, the nuts itself fit in the hole in the wheels, but there's not space lefting to insert the socket to thight the nuts!!
The tuners logs are just some thiner nuts with a special socket.

I got mine when I ordered my wheels from these guys: http://www.buywheelstoday.com/
The kit with 20 nuts, 4 chrome valve stems and the special socket was something like $25. |

Thanks for the replies. I went to my local tire/wheel store and found what I needed. Plenty of room for a standard socket too. Thanks. -Mike
