Just got my 2010 Prius last week. Planning on JDM Style mods for visual upgrades. I thought about doing a wheel upgrade but don't want to sacrifice the miles per gallon. My idea to make the factory wheels stand out was to get some extended lug nuts. My question is for the factory wheels do I need the acorn style lug nuts or the flat? Thank you
This link is some replacement lug nuts I purchased. The seat is conical, but that's basically just for the temp spare. With the regular alloys, it's the captured washer that does the clamping. Note, if you've got an Ad-Block running in your browser, you may need to switch it off to see the above.

Ran into a couple of issues with this compatibility chart before, double check with another sources on large transactions.
Don't do it man. I'm all for modifying cars but slapping on a few Universal mods like this on a an essentially start car just doesn't look right. First thing you should do is lower it
Lower it and just space out your OEMs until you are ready to go all in. Thats what Ive done. I have 10mm spacer in the rear and 5mm in the front. You dont need to get new lugs or new posts. You can get away with pushing out to 12mm in the rear and still have a good grip.
