The lug nuts for ASA JH3 rims provided by tirerack look the same size as OEM BMW lug nuts. I realized after putting my winter wheels on that I did not use tirerack's lug nuts. Now I'm not sure if that was necessary. If anyone has these wheels from tirerack, have you used the original lug nuts or the ones provided by tirerack? Thanks.

I have the same wheels and used the new ones provided by Tirerack. But, i do not think it makes a difference.

I used the originals. I think they are exactly the same, just different color heads.

I used the Tire Rack ones. They're the experts so I'm not going to argue with them. If it only comes down to paint color, I'd rather use the silver ones in the winter and save the black ones from the salt, etc. so they'll look better in the summer...
