:rolleyes:

contact the affiliates

Light weight are usually aluminum and they strip easier than steel acorn lugnuts. Just a precaution.

Check our affiliates page to see our many vendors we have. Also, this thread has been moved from the tech forum to hear as this is not a tech question.

Thanks

voww...lots of editing here

did anyone ever try them? does it make a difference

there are some on ebay that is .6oz

that happens with spam..



if the nuts are closed end they're good
open end are shyt, don't believe me? try them out yourself for 3 months and find out

:dito: i have tried both types, get the closed end ones, you will thank yourself later

lemme reword my shyt..

open end are NOT for everyday use..
great for a track day, show...that kinda thing
but beyond that slap the closed end on

is there a big difference using light vs stock?

if you had a 10 second car and wanted to hit 9.9995 then maybe ya

It is lighter, but the "weight saving" is so insignificant that it is almost a pure bling factor. Plus, aluminum will bond to steel (the studs) more easily under high heat application so you are highly recommended to use anti-seize.

which is exactly what you don't want to do..
the idea is to pinch the metals against each other at all possible contact points..."snot" inhibits that

ergo, leave the light weight lugs to those that wanna switch 'em up every other day, or are extremely handy with a set of torches ;)
