Wheel nuts for stock wheels

Hey guys, I want to get some blue wheel nuts for my stock wheels.
I heard it's quite difficult to find aftermarket nuts that fit the stock wheels.

Cheers, Daniel

I looked on the link provided and didn't see any colour options...what's wrong with that?
I thought forums were supposed to be about questions and answers and helpin others out, if you're not going to help then don't bother posting...wasting my time and yours.

You could just paint it blue.

The reason I think it's hard to find nuts that fit is because of the way the aftermarket nuts seat with the stock wheels. A lot of the nuts i've seen say "only for aftermarket wheels" or "60deg acorn seat"
The one set of nuts I did try with my stock wheels didn't fit properly....so I don't want to buy a set that will be useless to me.

Note the unique seating of these nuts. Highly recommended.

iirc the threading is 12x1.5 for our studs.

you could also just go to pepboys n' buy the cheap colored ones for like $20. They worked on my stockies. Tq'd to 108lbs n' hit the mountains. Worked fine.
