I need new lug nuts so I said F paying 50 bucks for new lugs all around.

Baddog Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 These ones I found http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=32905G&Category_Code=L1&Store_Code=EM Have a tapered bottom. I thought the WRX rims you need like that coneish style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 extended ones costs a bit more but look at your rims, if it has a tapered end, then all tuner lugs would work some OEM wheels have the "flat" surface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmb2485 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 nice, but whats gonna stop the impact socket from ruining the paint? The fact that they are anodized, not painted. dont use an impact gun? Blasphemy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underground000 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 It says in the listing These nuts are BRAND NEW. Do not tighten with impact tools. Use a standard torque wrench and tighten to factory specifications. Will be shipped priority in the orignal foam tray to get you the best rate and fastest shipping possible." 5eat downshift rev match:) Powder coated wheels: completed:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be seeing in a couple weeks how well they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 no it wont.. just the non-extended close end ones wont clear the extended studs, thats why they made those(i guess for aesthetic reasons too) anodized coating will strip over time...my red anodized ones are almost chrome now...

Well if I find some better ones for around 70-80 shipped I will look into those instead. I would like things to last. As do we all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drift Motion Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 they look like regular 19mm(most likely this size) or 21mm lugs shouldnt need any kit the pic of the "box" with everything doesnt seem to have a key in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
