tuner wheel nuts
will these fit the classic shape impreza and will they be any good as seem cheap http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3305782718...84.m1423.l2649

I just ordered a set of these in black, fitted them at the weekend and i am impressed with the quality and finish, not crap anodised stuff, the black looks hard wearing plus they are steel. Great customer service from rarerims too
|
i thought they would be ok as they are steel and arnt going to crack like cheap alloy
|
i got these in black , started to rust already when u tighten them with the cheap tool supplied it can scratch through to bare metal ?? very easily scratched ! imo . also ive heard ones called D1 spec are not much cop either ??

might leave them then as im like a bull in a china shop when it comes to wheel nuts
|
aparently they forged steel ??

Alloy ones will stay on your studs....but repetitive taking off and on, off, on.....damages the threads quickly in the soft alloy.
|
steel chromed is the way to go by looks of it then being a much harder finish should stay shiny
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CHROME-TUN...item35b483e676 don't like the skinny ones so have ordered these will let you know if any good http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-12x1-25...item35b5b2d967 |
a pound each !! wouldnt expect too much but let us know .
|
arrived today, there is the odd impefection in the chrome finish but only under close scrutiny and the finish itself looks tough enough so as good as can be expected for £20
main issue for me is although they look similar to the ones they're replacing, right length and seat angle, they are a bit slim and need a 17mm spanner my wheel spanner is 19mm, they were "buy it now" though so can always send them back if i can't find a very cheap spanner, it never ends lol |
