There are a couple of different styles. White knight lugnuts also has a design like those. Can’t use those on OEM wheels though. They don’t have the shank that goes into the wheel.

Love too see what the Lawsuit monetary amount asked for would be for a incident with someone who has these on their car. Find something more interesting in life.

Damn the GS is turning into rice boxes. The IS and Camrys are already there but please not the GS. We need to keep the value up!

18-wheelers usually use those spiked lugs.

Google says:

"Why do semi trucks have spikes on wheels, you ask?
  1. They act as a protective shield for the lug nuts that secure the wheels of the semi-truck.
  2. They act as a crash deterrent for other drivers on the road that may veer too close to a semi-truck.
  3. They act as a cosmetic feature that adds character and style to a truck driver’s main focal point of income: their semi-truck.
