I've got a set of advan rc wheels to go on the ATR, but the wheel nuts need to be tapered rather than the OEM domed ones.
What recommendations to people have for wheel nuts? OEM style or light weight, I don't mind but I had a set of D1's and they weren't great as some of the treads have distorted an don't go on properly now so anything except them
Cheers

IMO Get steel nuts and not alloy

You have to keep on top of neon chrome plating to make sure it doesn't corrode, much like chrome plating.

I wasn't looking at the neon chrome, I was looking at the red ones below them
