Re: lug nut questions?
Sure your stock lugnuts will work. You may want to think about some Chrome lug nuts since they will show, and of course some locking lug nuts.

Re: lug nut questions?
Take one of your lugnuts off, and look at it on the Bullitt wheel. It should have the same taper. If you are not sure, have the guys at the tire shop look at it, they will know because they mount thousands of wheels. You can order Chrome Lug Nuts for the Bullitt wheels at Ford, or you can find some at the tire store.
