Just bought a 2007 Honda Civic and as I was checking the torque on all lug nuts noticed that there is a locking lug nut on each wheel which I don't have key too.

Having watched a few u-tube videos I think I can remove those locking lug nuts.

I do have a set of acorn lug nuts from a Mazda 3 that I think will work to replace all of them since both are 12 x 1.5 mm. Any thoughts on replacing the lug nuts?

Most Mazdas use taper/conical seat lug nuts whereas Honda uses ball seat. Might wanna check if the ones you have are ball or conical. They're a no-go if they're conical seat

Thanks. Pulled one lugnut off of the Honda Civic and it was 1-3/8" long. The Mazda 3 lug nut was about 1" long. Wouldn't have worked anyway.

Bought 20 ball seat chrome lug nuts off of Amazon.
