Default finally got my spoon lug nuts

i bought some Spoon lug nuts from Steve Berman for a real good price. great seller

here are some pictures, and my review

the box they came in, fresh from japan-


i think Spoon made a few typos. oh well-


wow, individually wrapped!-


the lug (yes, it says gorilla on it. Steve told me that gorilla makes spoon lug nuts)-


review-

i didn't notice a difference. i only paid 200 bucks so im happy. even though i didn't notice a change in performance im sure its worth a few tenths at the track. oh yeah, steve, can i have the key? i can't put these things on my car without it. thanks!

So you bought Gorilla lugs in a Spoon box? HMmmm... seems like it would have been cheaper to get regular ones. Hahaha

So is there a weight difference between these and gorilla? Seems expensive eventhough they look nice. I definitely like the Spoon packaging cause even my shift **** is seperated from the hex key and my magnetic drain bolts to keep it scratch free. I think the sticker was separated for the oil cap too.

Man I can promise you that those lugs aren't going to be worth a couple tenths at the track. The weight reduction is too far in on the wheel!

Is this another joke post?
It's funny only for the first time.

Don't copy someone's joke. Just making yourself stupid.

Hate to burst your bubble, but those aren't real "Spoon" lugnuts. The real ones do say gorilla, but it's spelled "Gorrirra," you got scammed, send them back

wow, i really want some yellow mugen parts on my car, but i'm saving up for the new style spoon lugnuts.
$200 is alot, but if they're titanium, i can see the price as justifiable.
maybe i'll get the mugen civer next....can you at least write mugen on the outside of the box?
