Will OEM Lugs fit on Rota Grids?

Just curious or do I have to buy new lugs.

Technically they will fit, but because the tapered part of the OEM lugs aren't as deep (for lack of better description) as aftermarket nuts, they will scratch your Rota's pretty bad.

YMMV but yes most, if not all, aftermarket tuner style lug nuts (in M12x1.25) should be fine. If you're like me and you're anal about scratching your wheels, take one OEM nut out first, and thread the aftermarket one in slowly. Pay close attention to whether it fits well before tightening them up.
