^ +1 Well than give me an idea. What kind of weight differance are we talking here?

i'd say maybe like 4-5 duraluminum lugs = the weight of one stock lug

Lugs are bling. Nothing wrong with that but no one is gaining any performance from a set of aftermarket lugs.

never sad otherwise but there is a huge weight difference

Many aftermarket wheels really work best with extended lugs. I can't imagine trying to install some non-extended lugs in some of the wheels I've owned (the Meister posted was not an example of this).

Quick question - does anyone here know the seat on the OEM lugs? For the life of me, I can't recall whether it's conical or ball seat...

Jeez? Dont you have thieves there? I see no locking wheel nuts!

Many aftermarket lugs have an integrated lock that looks similar to the lugs. Not sure who you were referring to but I know mine do :)

cool.

I need to grab some black anodised ones of some kind....

Project kicks two peace openface lugs 27mm in neo chrome.

New break rotors have been put on since the pick. No more rust!

I want to buy a set of these. Probably in a week or two when I get my wheels :rock:

Nice you really cant go wrong with the two piece kics! Hope you have deep channels for those long lugs!

They should look like this (except these are the NeoChro)

It is very subtle. With my Rays one of the lugs is slightly larger and has a special groove in it per each wheel. Only the key will work with it.

Yeah I have just got some speacial nuts for my new wheels. Pics to follow when wheels are on.. still awaiting tyres.... (and nuts for that matter!)

^ Can't wait to see the nuts...

lol i wanna see nuts......:rollingla

its great talking about nuts....

my wet nuts

^ Mines wetter :lol:

I want some Project Kics neo chromes. I think they will go well with phantom blue 8 + all black oz ultraleggeras

So pick some up they make the neo chromes in many different flavors, sizes and types. I use the two piece ones but they are not cheap.

I think a gun metal/dark chrome lug on black rimes would look better then neo chrome.

More like worn nuts. Dayum! Any paint left on them?

yeaaa i know, i have another set waiting to replace 'em.

^ Are you replacing your nuts? ... oh, i mean your lug nuts? :hahano:

What color lug nuts do you guys think would look good with these wheels on a Titatium Gray?
