Question What lug nuts are you using for your aftermarket wheels?

Just wondering. I am looking for a set, and also, deciding on the colour.

I am thinking blue or black for white + bronze wheels (uumm... ya, 2 white, 2 bronze, I was too god damn cheap to buy a set). Perhaps next year, I will have them painted the same colour, but won't be white or bronze.

Thanks guys

i am planning on gettin some purple lug nuts. if i cant find those i will get some blue ones. my question is how stable are these things? i heard horrors stories about aftermarket extended studs breaking off etc... so i dont want the same with these lugs.

Well, I'm planning on buying a set of black lugs, probably from Mugen or Rays (if I'm feeling bling bling) to go with my new black Works rims... that is, whenever I finally get 'em here!

For you, I'd suggest black... they would go well with both your bronze rims and your white ones.

One thing I heard, is that to use anti seize on the thread bcause it is steel, and the lug nut is aluminum. To prevent binding.

Ya I think black is alright. But if the stickers are blue, I might swing to the blue ones... :P

Now that I have 2 wheels here, I really got to get one this, summer is around the corner, can't wait.

I run Mcgaurd Swivel Tuner nuts. The base swivels so it doesn't cut into your rim. When you torque them with a torque wrench you also get a more accurate reading. I have considered going wiht a set of Skunk 2 ones though.
