Red lugnuts?

Anyone point me to a place where I can get some red lugnuts? I just put on Rota Boost wheels on my car and I thought of getting red ones to 'match'

What size do I need?


Thanks!

To use lugnuts you will have had to change over to studs.

Depending on the year of the car it could be 12x1.5 or 14x1.5

6/06+ (R53), 07+ (R56) MINI uses the 14x1.5

Red lugnuts are not hard to find at all. They are made by Work, Spoon, Blox, Rays, Muteki and a host of others. Either do a search via Google for Red Lugnuts or check with your favorite aftermarket Japanese parts place.

keep in mind most cheap ones are red anodized and will fade to pink due to UV. you get what you pay for.

To Nathan's list, I'll add Titek...nicely made and available in short or long

I didnt change the wheel studs, they are still the stock ones, so I guess I'll need 14x1.5 (post 6/06 car)

Thanks for the info.
