^^You sir are correct. I do HIGHLY recommend getting Project Kics. Best lug nut ever! Due to the fact that it's on a bearing allowing the wheels finish not to get messed up every time you tighten your lug nuts.

I've never seen a place have more lugz then this online store:

http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/me...tegory_Code=L1


Or you can get McGard Spline Drive lugz which like iSuxeL said, don't scratch up your wheels finish, and they are less then half the price of Project Kicks too

http://www.summitracing.com/search/B.../?autoview=sku

Those are what I just got for my new wheels.

EDIT: whatever you get, get anodized lugz NOT painted! Painted ones scrach/chip easy and rust. Anodized don't.

Is this any good?

Muteki SR35 Lug Nuts - Black (Closed Ended) ...price is very attractive...


Or do I just settle for this since I have work wheels too?

Work Lug Nuts - Black
Muteki's are painted and will rust quick. Go anodized (WORK)
