Need lug nuts 81 Corvette
Just bought an 81 Corvette that has aftermarket rims which look like garbage. I just bought a set of factory 8 slotted rims for car but I need the factory lug nuts. The ones on car now are the acorn type. Looks like I need the ones that go into the rim. Where's the best place to buy these lug nuts? They have so many different style lug nuts on Ebay. Thanks

I ran a set at one point and we've got a fairly large tire shop locally and they when through all their suppliers (at the time) and only thing they found that was even close were metric.
Ended up having to go to a vette supplier and ordered a set from them
