Default Re-use stock lugnuts?

Has anyone reused the stock lugnuts? Is there some reason I shouldn't? I will probably by wheel locks, but other than that, can I just re-use my current ones?

The answer to you question, as written , is "Yes".
You need to add some information to get a more correct answer for your actual application.

I'm using eagle
135's. They are lug centric, and they appear towork when I mounted the wheel alone to look at the clearance. What other information do I need to provide? Thanks.
