I just ordered the rays 50MM. What set them apart from the rest is that they include 4 locks (with key) that are 7 sided lug nuts.

McGard spline drive lugs. Shaft rotates as ends stay stationary so they dont "dig" into ur wheels. Very light as well, i just got a set of black ones, work great.

If you have really expensive wheels, you may want to look into the ones with locks for each wheel, like someone said above....just hope the theif doesnt have the same lugs, lol

I am looking into switching out my black rays lug nuts to these newer version ones. They are so sexy, but so expensive...

Are you guys using the rays with the stock wheels? I'll be powdercoating mine at the end of the month and want to get some red lugs to accent them.

Project Kics R40 NeoChro.. had them for over 1.5 years and still looks brand new.
Ray's lugs tend to fade especially blue and red... and so will those mutekis

I went for the long Muteki M12xP1.50 lug nuts in Chrome - I like the look of the long nuts in the deep dishing of the RX-8 rims plus every one of these is a 'lock' nut - you use the one tool for all of them - so its a clean and even look as such.

Came from this guy on Ebay:

The only other Ti lugs I know are T1R and GT Motoring. Both of which are over 500. So compared to that, lol
