Default Lugs

I currently have Wagon Wheels on my Vette, I've bought some polished alum. GM wheels. 5 spoke. Y2K's I think what they are called.

Anyway what lugs do I need to buy? Can I use mine or do I need to get new ones?

If you want to go with the stock look, you will need to buy some lugs that have the external threads on them so you can use the plastic lug covers that go with the wheel. Or you can go to a place like Discount tire and buy a set of chrome lugs that do away with the plastic cap.
