Just purchased a set of 17/18 Volk GT-Ps from the KID
what should I use for the lug nuts? Do I need Hub rings?
thanks

What lug nuts to use with Volks
- Thread starter RichM
- Start date
Mcgard Spline Lugs with lock. Strongest and safest Lug nuts you can get. About $70-$80 for a set online. I have the black versions. If the wheels did not come with hubcentric rims, you will probably be okay. If you notice some vibrating when driving, perhaps some hub rings will help.

I use Rays lugs...made by the company that made your Volks. 
+1 on Rays :smile:
Thanks
decided to order from SOS and while I was shopping picked up a couple of NSX-R suspension braces and a few other toys.
This upgrade thing is addictive-

generally the more expensive the lug nuts, the better it turns. aftermarket aluminum ones could be cross thread a little easier, but they are perfectly fine if you tighten the lugs by hand and torque wrench. (no impact gun use) However I strongly recommend hub centric rings, as when you install the wheel without it, you have to make sure it's center or else, you could scratch the wheel and also may have put more wear and tear as you tighten the lug nuts down.
T1R Titanium lugs would be nice.
Extended Rays FTW!
I used the Rays ones, lets see some pics of those puppies!
Tires are mounted, balanced and on the car- look awsome drive great- no rubbing
but the car is on jack stands in the middle of turbo surgery
we did the belts first and I just got through wiring up the new fuel injectors and re-gapping the plugs
exhaust is off and I will be doing the fuel management next (tonight)
HID light kit is on the way (as well as NSX-R suspension pieces)
I did the gauge trim rings on Sunday
I will take pictures when its all back together
I am debating doing an s2000 start switch (where the cig lighter sits) and motorizing the ashtray- I did this on my neigbors 94 NSX and it's pretty trick
But i probably will spend the time on my new NAV POD and a CAMP II
After owning my 97 for six years the mod bug has bitten hard
