I just bought a set of 16 Black GT3 from a buddy of mine...I need some lug nuts and I was wanting to put some nice looking ones without having to spend too much.
Does anyone know of any "new" cheap sets.
I found this guy thats selling actual Gorilla Lug Nuts for $1 per lug nut with a free key. He's got a pretty good feedback from others. what do you think?

And also, should I go with Black or Chrome?

Thoe lugnuts that the OP linked ot look just like the cheapy locking lug nuts sold at Autozone.

The ones he's selling are actual Gorilla Lug Nuts which I thought was one of the good names.
Ive definately seen the ones from Autozone and I dont think it even comes close. The guy PM'd me back and he priced out <U>$22 shipped </U>for chrome and <U>$23 shipped</U> for blacks.
I checked out ebay, summit, and even GorillaLugNut.com. the least expensive Ive found was $26.99 + shipping.

You need tapered lugs though, any OE flat ended lug will mess up your wheels and be unsafe.

rotas require the spherical end.

I was told that I needed a Cone seat style not Ball seat which is what Honda OEM's are.

OE honda lugs and rota lugs will be different.

Look on http://www.jlbmotorsports.com

They sell appropriate lugs for rotas. Cheap too.

I would think that your lug nuts play a pretty important part in your car. IMO thats one peice you dont want to go cheap on. I'm not saying spend a ton on them but dont go too cheap.

I'd rather spend $50 and get some Gorilla lock systems (not the cheapie ones) and have almost zero chance of someone having the same key as you.
