Hey guys! I was curious as to what lug nuts you were using on your aftermarket wheels. Post them up!

Golden D1 Spec lug nuts but I'm gonna change them to Muteki SR48's 'cause I don't trust the quality and strength of the aluminium on the D1 Spec nuts.

I'm using the KICS Kyokugen 7-Sided Lug Nuts and they can be a pain in the butt when I'm torquing them down.

Same here. The shipping costs are a biatch compared to the price of the lugs.

Ebay is another option but I wonder if these are legit? ~$119 shipped.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/MUTEKI-SR48-WHEELS-LUG-NUTS-12X1-5-1-5-ACORN-RIM-EXTENDED-OPEN-END-20-GOLD-L-/161082791344?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item25814855b0&vxp=mtr
On top of that I'd like to get the locking lugs also but eBay doesn't have them in gold.

Check with Enjuku Racing or NL Motoring... that's where I picked up my set.

NL Motoring is the only place (rather quick google search) where I can get both the lug set and the locking lug set. Total ~$186 with over $70 of shipping.
Enjuku doesn't offer gold ones nor locking lugs.

I guess I'll have to order them from NL motoring still though.

I got mine from this seller:

Look at this on eBay:

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=281329557232

Muteki SR48 Wheel Lugnuts Neo-Chrome 12x1.5 20 Pieces w/ Key

It doesn't have the locking nuts that seperate, I won't need those just yet but here is a ebay link. Mine are legit from what I can see.

Look at this on eBay:

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181120064647

MUTEKI SR48 4 WHEELS LOCK LUG NUTS SET 12X1.25 1.25 ACORN RIMS OPEN END NEO-C N

Hope this helps. I searched The part number for the locks and for the lugs from site like NL Motoring and others to find the ones I purchased from ebay.
