It looks regular OEM bolts go for $7 - 8 each.
Anyone know of a better price for an OEM or equivalent quality bolt?

I found a used set in fine condition, 20 bolts (no locking bolts) for $40 including shipping!

Just got back from the dealer and they gave me a "discount" on 4 normal lugs, $10 each, but it was well worth it. Came home and got my trusty lock nut monster removal tool and took out the four stupid lugs and replaced them with normal ones. Then I shined up the car and went for a little ride. It's been a while but we finally had a beautiful day.
