Ok, I have some cheap 17X8 bullitt rims on my car. Do they use the same lug nut as an 03' 17X9 cobra rim? somewhere between 3 cars and multiple sets of rims new lug nuts has to be bought and I don't remember if they are the same or not.

I'm going to have to say no on this one... Obviously the center caps are different sizes, but im pretty sure you can just use your stock lugs...

I can't see why they wouldn't be the same, but i don't know for sure. I've used the lugs from my bullitt's on my stockers, and some fr500's, so i can't imagine the cobra's being any different.

Ahhh mixed opinions! ha! see I thought that my stockers were different than the bullitts, and that bullitts were the same as cobra... Going to have new tires put on the cobras tomorrow and put on my car, don't wanna pay $2/lug, if I have to buy new ones I'll buy them myself and not spend $/2 lug.

So it will work! Ha I have the worst luck on earth. I bet they will end up not working. We will see... Thanks for the input guys. Just trying to save $20, every penny helps, but we all know that.

i feel like an idiot. I totally contradicted myself in my post above. I meant to say that "I'm gunna have to say yes, that they are probably the same thing and will work..."

I interpretted the question as "is there a difference between the lugs"... Sorry about that man. Good thing other people respond..
