Default Anybody have a lug to spare?

Honda wants $10 bucks for ONE lug. The tire shop f***in cross threaded my lug. When i went to take it off it snapped so i had to replace the stud. Now i need ONE lug, went to honda figuring maybe $4-5 they want $10! And its gonna take a week to get. Anyone have a lug to spare, or know any where they sell the lug for cheap. I went to my local AutoZone but they showed me this little lug and it doesnt look anything like my lug. Any help is apprecieted!

Go to some junkyard / salvage wrecking yard, preferably a honda one, they will give them to you for almost free...

What Honda dealer would say that? Most have a bin full of them. Look the parts person in the face and let them know the lugnut is worth all of ~$5.50 retail. I have no idea what they weigh and which one you really need-but I do have them for both aPrelude and a CRX and that is what I paid.

Yea Majestic Honda has got it for $5.15. Is that the right type? Part 23.

Yes it is Part #23 on the drawing. You can verify the thread pattern at any dealership. Another source is McGard-look on their site to see what they offer so you can verify the size. I use the 'spline drive' lug nuts instead of the stock ones on our race rims and as far as I can see they are the same for both the Prelude and CRX. Hope that helps.

My autozone has all the lug nut types I ever need, for like $1 each. Did you ask to look at the types they have? They'll normally have about four styles in each thread pattern.

Yea i went to them but they had a really small length to it so the lug on there now is from autozone for temp. Boom is sending me a lug they dont have the right one its way too small.
