I'll look around, may have lugs too. If not they can be had for pretty cheap at Honda. OEM acorn lugs are inexpensive.

[frozenrice]

I have a box of misc. Honda lugs if you need. Worst case you can always go to Pick n Pull. I'm sure there's a ton of them sitting on the ground....

Dover+north of Glenmore Tr=still NE.

I have a full set of spline drive lugs that I won't be using, not 100% if they will fit a Honda but you're free to pick them up and see if they work.

[Thaco]

Thanks for the suggestions guys, i think i am covered, problem with pick n pull for lugs on thr ground is you never know what they came off of... also splined wont work witht he stock wheels because of the center cover, but thanks for the offers...


I am still just totally baffled by this whole thing... My truck sits there every day on 20's that are easily with 5x the value of these wheels/tires, but the one time i leave this car home in the past year (needed the truck to pick up a trailer) this happens... just dont understand the reasoning, the only thing i can think is someone with the same car but a lower model wanted the alus, and anybody in this area with aftermarket wheels likely has "security" nuts

[Thaco]

Lol, called the dealer about luguts, guy tells me they are $7 each, i'm like WTF over $100 for a set of lug nuts?

Then he looks it up in the computer, $3 each, that's still $50... that's still crazy, i can get a set off ebay for $14 (plus shipping makes em like $25... but wont get them for a couple weeks.)

thanks guys, i am all fixed up, even threw sme locking lugs on there, cost $30, but it should make it a little more difficult to steal next time, the $30 is a small price for the inconvenience and cost of replacing them.

Sorry to hear of the theft. Now of course people are going to point and say "Who puts locking lugs on stock wheels on a 91 accord? really?" LOL, we know better.

I guess I need to spring for some locks as well.

[Graham_A_M]

Dude, go to Pick n' Pull, target the accords and you'll have yourself a full set for under $10. They may even let you walk out with them at no charge. I went there not long ago since I needed some clips, and they just said, "Thanks for the honesty" and ushered me on through. :dunno:

[jdmakkord]

Just found a box of accord oem lugs too. Sounds like you already took care of it though.
