New wheels arrived!

My new wheels just arrived - I have a 2001 Max Se - do I need different wheel nuts to make this happen or can I just use stock? I wanna put them on tonight!!

Unless your new wheels come with a cap that covers the lugs, you will probably not be able to use your existing lug nuts. Try looking for Acorn type lug nuts at a 12x1.25 pitch. Peace_

It's hard to tell withouth knowing the brand of wheel. Most new wheels need tuner lug nuts.

Just try putting them on with your existing nuts to see if they work.

Where did you order your wheels from? Usually they include new nuts for you. I got my Evo5's from tirerack.com and they came free of charge.

I hope that your center caps will fit. Some people had problems and had to buy 5mm spacers so that the center cap will fit.
