This complete 20-piece set contains 16 standard lug nuts and four locking lug nuts, allowing one lock to be installed on each wheel of a five-lug vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe floating tapered seat rotates independently from the main lug-nut body as the nut is tightened. This design helps provide consistent clamping while reducing the possibility of scratching, gouging, or twisting against the wheel’s lug seat. The open-end construction also accommodates compatible standard and extended wheel studs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-strength SCM435 alloy-steel construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-piece floating-seat design\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFloating seat helps reduce scratching and gouging of the wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpen-end racing-style construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard or extended studs when properly sized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour locking lug nuts provide one wheel lock per wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard lug nuts use a 17 mm hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack Chrome finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProject Kics part number KRC11K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread size: M12 x 1.50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWheel-seat type: 60-degree tapered or conical seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfiguration: 20-piece set for a four-wheel, five-lug vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWheel type: Compatible aftermarket wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eM12 x 1.50 is commonly used on many Honda, Acura, Toyota, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, and other vehicles. However, thread pitch alone does not guarantee fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm the wheel-stud thread, lug-seat shape, seating diameter, stud length, lug-hole diameter, and tool clearance before ordering. These lug nuts are not compatible with wheels requiring a ball seat, radius seat, flat seat, mag or shank-style nut, inverted lug nut, or another specialized attachment system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany factory wheels use a different seat design even when the vehicle has M12 x 1.50 wheel studs. Do not use these lug nuts on an original factory wheel unless the wheel’s seat specifications have been verified as compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFloating-Seat Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach R40 lug nut uses a separate floating seat between the nut body and wheel. As the lug nut is tightened, the seat contacts the wheel without rotating directly against its finished surface in the same manner as a conventional one-piece lug nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis construction helps reduce wheel-seat damage and supports consistent clamping when the lug nuts are installed correctly and tightened to the appropriate specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended for street, show, and track vehicles equipped with compatible aftermarket wheels and M12 x 1.50 wheel studs. The open-end construction is especially useful with extended wheel studs, provided the stud does not interfere with the installation tool or locking key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16 Project Kics R40 standard open-end lug nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 Project Kics R40 locking open-end lug nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 matching wheel-lock key\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20 total lug nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProject Kics part number KRC11K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne lock can be installed on each wheel of a four-wheel, five-lug vehicle.

Start every lug nut by hand for several complete turns to prevent cross-threading. Make sure the floating seat is correctly positioned against the wheel and that the lug nut does not bottom out on the stud before clamping the wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTighten the lug nuts gradually in the appropriate crossing pattern using the torque specification supplied by the vehicle or wheel manufacturer. Do not use an impact wrench to start the threads, and avoid excessive impact force that could damage the finish, floating seat, locking key, or wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRecheck the lug-nut torque after the initial driving interval recommended by the wheel manufacturer. Inspect the lug nuts, wheel seats, studs, and locking key periodically for wear or damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Project Kics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71310915436797,"sku":"PJKKRC11K","price":208.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1935\/9157\/files\/c859c0cd2caca8372dc3974668ff92fd.jpg?v=1789512855","url":"https:\/\/www.velocityshop.com\/products\/project-kics-12x1-50-r40-lug-nuts-black-16-4-locks","provider":"Velocity Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
