For anyone running Forgestar F14 wheels
What are you running for lug nuts? I cannot find one that will fit. The hole is just too narrow ... even on basic skinny tuner / spline lugs the key will rub the wall and I am not risking it.

When you call and ask Forgestar what to run, they suggest tuner lug nuts as well, so maybe the type of tuner lugs you have are a brand that wont work because the key to take the nuts off likely is too large from what it sounds like. What kind of tuner lugs are you trying to use?
I know guys around here are using tuner lug nuts without issues, maybe they can post what kind they were. |

I have tried the smallest profile lug / key combinations. McGard, Topline, Muteki ... no luck. The Muteki tuner lug barely slides in but the key will rub when tightening.
I'm really not impressed at this point. I have a new set of Project KICS R40 Revo's sitting here that I cannot use.

i asked forgestar and they said to go with muteki splinedrive.
i was really hoping the mcgard splinedrive would fit tho. i remeber reading someone here was using volks rays lugs fine. but i really want some gold lugs that fit. |

Mine were just installed yesterday and I got black lugs from Forgestar. They look and fit great.

I had problems as well, went with internal splines. Fit, but close.
