Wheel nuts ?
Can anyone recommend some fancy wheel nuts ?
I've seen some D1-spec nuts on ebay that look nice but never heard of them before
Also found these - 5zigen - Racing Nut - Nengun Performance
And these - Unit 8 Performance Products Wheels and Accessories - scroll down for wheel nuts - the Rays in blue also come with locking wheel nuts
The Lug Shack - Number One Source For High Quality Lug Nuts At The Best Prices!
Which colour will look best with gold rims ?

I found D1 specs very soft - carefull with the thread, use copper grease and don't put them in the dishwasher !! and I would get an alloy nut socket from halfords
they look good mind you !!P.S. got sucha socket if you want to borrow it

Found this site - Z-1 Performance Automotive Services Inc.
Some damn nice wheels on there, hard to choose which ones i'd like
They have some Titanium wheel nuts which look quite snazzy

Bought mine from Japspeed, their a bit strong for the alloy bonnet but fine when your used to them. I always fancied the Tein ones but they were a bit pricey at the time, think they've come down in price now. So much easier than the stay, especially when its windy.

I've got a set of TPI forged alloy one's on mine, very light and these are round on the outside and use a big hex shape stud to remove them, so no need for locking nuts.
I've had them for over two years now and still look like the day i got them. it's must be the lack of cleaning that keps them in good shape.
I would say one thing though, they didn't fit very well with the inovite wheels I used on the blue one for a track day, the alloy wheel was very soft and they would need doing up all the time. work fine on WORK emotion wheels though
