Context for the inexperienced: these are cone seat GM lugnuts, the cone portion is supposed to face IN towards the wheel as they are self centering, not OUT… guy didn’t know wtf he was doin

Just wanna say thanks for posting something OC and interesting here. All of the other things I’ve seen have been shitty “memes” that should’ve stayed on Facebook.
I used the wrong lugs on the OEM winter wheels on my RSX. At first I didn’t know any better (conical vs ball seat), but once the damage had been done I kept using them. The OEM wheels were already fairly rough when I bought the car. Oops, but at least I know better now, and at least I was doin’ better than this guy.
Of course, i’m always happy to share.
Hahaha, I’m pretty sure mixing up ball vs cone seats is a rite of passage for all auto mechanics. I’ve done it too. Especially after they’ve been on and off a few time, bastards look identical unless you really really look close. But getting the seat completely on the wrong side… sigh.
