Black Lug Nuts?

[rvm]

I'm thinking of buying this lug nuts for my car, what do you guys think? I think they will look nice with the OEM CTR wheels

I will buy them from ebay for 36 $ what do you think? (too bad i can't afford some 135 $ rays one )

If you are getting them just for the weight saving you are best off just going to the toilet before you go out. Then spend the money instead on beer.

I have one question, do aftermarket wheels nuts work well with oem civic type r wheels ?

 

[Andynista]

I believe they dont, aftermarket lug nuts have tapered ends, for aftermarket wheels they will damage your oe wheels......

I am not quite sure but I think only spoon makes lightweight lug nuts for oe wheels.

I think this picture will make it more clear, rvm you phooking cheap moron, I know him from way back so dont worry about the insults ahahaahaha

Honda OE wheels have a ball end and most aftermarket wheels and lug nuts have tapered or conical ends, they have to match, ball end, with ball seating area, conical end with conical seating area, this is to ensure even pressure on the wheel if even pressure is not reached because of un even distribution or too weak a contact link, the lug nuts will become loose and the wheel will fall off, and I am sure that is not a situation any of us will want to be in just to have "cool lightweight lug nuts" on oem wheels. paint yours black if that is what you want.

I dont have a picture but if you must have black lug nuts, this is the part number for oe black lug nuts, that came in the alex zanardi edition nsx 90304-SA7-811......


I also found these spoon lug nuts I was talking about, sorry mate but you have to pay to play!
