You dont have to but I would. Just go to the local auto store and they should have a set in stock with a wheel lock. Or if you want some fancy chrome ones you can stop in at Discount tire or another tire shop they usually run 2.00 a piece for some tuner type. Plus the apperance of the new lung nuts seems to get over looked, it will look much better.

Oh I believe they are 12x1.50. I could be wrong if you ask at the shop they can clarify.

I hope it didnt sound like I was saying you have to. What I mean is they are basicly both stock wheels they both have the same seat to the on the lug/wheel so you can use the stock lugs. However with the C5 wheels I can assure you the new lug nuts would look nicer!
