Default Colored lugs for us stock wheel rockin fools

I found these. They say acorn seat, but i have yet to find someone who actually sells them. If anyone is running aluminum lugs with stock wheels out there, post your experiences.

They are gorilla's and i know alot of yall dont like em, but hey...they should work as long as u dont over tighten.

I used titanium lugs on my old GSR wheels, they need to be torqued twice when you put them on though. For some reason they always needed the extra torqueing. Now some the lugs are etched away at the bottom, and I dont use them, especially on my type R wheels.

titanium? sheesh! did they get etched because of the extra torquing? I'm not sure what you mean by etched? Like wear around the lug seat from the wheel moving on it or what?

I've used my Gorilla lugs on:

stock steelies, HX wheels, GSR blades, and now Spoon SW88's.

They've worked great for me

you growin out the frow? cuz that would look hot man!

GREEN?! no. They are goin on my wheels when i get em powdercoated, so red will match better. I had a different set all picked out then i thought about aluminum not being as strong and got worried cuz of the different seats.
