No, you cant use an effin 3/4 inch drive. My lugs have a pattern that is sort of a star shape. You have to have the drive that comes w/ the lugs. You put that drive into a 3/4 socket. It is an option on certain sets of enkei rims, although you may be able to order the lugs from the company w/o buying the rims. I have the Enkei Arashi 17's and they came w/ these lugs. I'll try to get you a pic tomorrow or sometime this week when i get batteries in my cam or use my mom's.

those wheel loocks are so easy to take off .... all you need is a strip nut/bolt remover to go around it and you just snap them off... yes i know people that like to take other peoples stuff...

the threads are garbage, they are impossable to put on and take off in any decent ammount of time, they strip too easy. if you dont take wheels off/on alot then theyre no problem, but i change wheels on/off all the time and they are just a pain in the neck to deal with when you change the wheels as often as i do.
