I need to get some...if anyone is interested let me know and I'll speak to a few vendors.

Open to suggestions as to manufacturer and type...

Cheers,
Ian

 

Hey mate

I've got some RAYS Lugs arriving from the US in a week or two. Will post some pics once they arrive....may help you select which ones to get

 

Would be intersted in a set of black ones dependant on price. Would need a full set of 20 though.

 

I'm looking for some Chrome/Silver ones that will not tarnish or rust as I'm sick of the crap zinc coated ones. I'm on my 2nd set (1st set was replaced after 3 weeks) and they are rubbish.

 

Been trying to find a set of extended alloy nuts for mt 07 STi for a while... think they are sometimes called 'tuner nuts' in certain places. They look great and will remove the problem of touching my alloys when I try to remove the wheels as space is a bit tight on my Rotas.


Cheers,
Grant

 

ARRGHHHH NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

not when i ordered some last WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Grant I know WUZ has a set of titanium tuner nuts in his garage. They weigh absolutely nothing, if your interested I could ask him if he is selling them.

Im interested as long as they dont stick out like BMX trick nuts,

The few examples i have seen stick out from the allow too far and look silly,

If we can get pics up then im in

Dave M

 

lol some interest then

Darms, be interested to see your pics

My preference is for internal drive as I have some nice new very light, rare and expensive ris I'm about to get re-painted Although if the price is right I'd be happy with regular nuts.

Agree re the extended nuts, unless you are gpng for a stud upgrade to match they are pointless anyway

Any wish lists as far as specific manufacturers go?

wwp8 can you PM me details of your recent purchase...the more information I have the better

 

intrested in some chrome ones

 

Trails, these guys http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/me...tegory_Code=L1 hold a good selection, however are crap on replying to emails.... Oh well, gives you an idea on whats out there.

laters mate

 

Great timing, yes please

 

Id go with Volk/RAYS mate.

At least you know youre getting a quality product. They do both short and extended versions too.

 

Yeah they seem to be a bench mark, but I have spent some time on this thread and there are many options

Post your lugs. - Member's Car Gallery - NASIOC

 

great start, I was looking for a decent resource to share the stateside options...

 

They just arrived today



not bad for £45

Should be on the car on the weekend.

 

I think we have a winner

Can you let me know the supplier details (I'd be interested in a set of locking nuts too), and how long they took to arrive...I'm imagining the blue ones on my car already

 

Red for me.. or maybe black?

 

Just so you know they aren't any easier to fit tightening wise for protecting the fixing holes.

The look cool though depending on where you get them from customs will want a piece of the action.

I have the Extended Rays which I prefer purely on styling

 

You fitted a set on the Turinis yet Stu?

 

Trails

I've emailed the seller will keep ya posted I was gonna go for the blue ones but they were a bit too light in colour so opted for Red instead. As for receiving them I got them in a 7 days or so

 

Stu, are you running extended studs too...if so where would you mind giving some costs details?

 

I was going to do it the other day but they are boxed still at the back of the garage under 3 other wheels and I thought bugger it I will do it another day. I want to put some rubber on them too but I am focused on the classic at the moment. I think I have 15 wheels in the garage currently soon to be 19 !!! 3 sets each per car and 3 spares in total YHPM BTW

 

thank you...you continue to reinforce your status as a very nice man
I was gonna go with black but I seem to have lots of anodised blue bits in the engine bay\underneath the car so blue for me

get your nuts on your car and post some pics...be interested to hear how much clearance you have when fitting them...what rims are you running?

 

No mate just the nuts, I wanted them flush with the torque rim edge so pure tart value

 

pmsl, at least you are honest

 

Cheers buddy

As for my rims....ya gonna have to wait for the pics

 

Bad news for ya Trails (+ other SNer's) - Just got an email from the supplier, she cant get anymore

Best of luck in finding a supplier.

 

trails got some black one's on mine, and i'm happy with them, i'll try to sort a pic out for you
