I recently picked up a set of Champion Racing RF62's and I was wondering if I should use the same bolts and the stock 17" sport wheels take or should I pick up a set of tuner lugs with locking bolts too. What are you're opinions? Where can I buy them?
By the way the Champions require ball seat lugs.

If the Champions use ball seat lugs, use your stocks. However, if your stock lugs are going to make those nice wheels look like crap, don't short change yourself. Get some nice ones that come with locks. I like Gorilla lugs/locks. However, I'd wait to get some expert advice from a person more knowledgeable about Champion wheels before you do anything. [;)]

What size are the stock bolts?
stock bolt length is 28mm. if you get at least 6 full turns [tirerack recommends 7.5] with them, you can use those. then put the lug caps to clean up the look.

Great info, now are all bolts the same diameter and threads per inch or do we have certain ones? Also does anyone have any experience with tuner style bolts like these:

I use Spline Gorilla lugs nuts. 14 x 1.50. They are great. I am not sure about the aspec ones. But the spline give you 20 bolts and a key!
