Tuner lugs are smaller in diameter then "normal" lugs. Seems Asian wheel manufacturers are moving to the "tuner" lugs.

It's all about the location...I've been realizing that lately. I try and bring a camera with me each time I go somewhere new, you never know what the weather or surroundings will give you.

The first two pics are basically the same shot/angle...but the background and lighting (weather) are different, and I think it really makes the difference.

I still want to try some parking garage shots. The orange/underground lighting is excellent.
