Default Lug Nuts?

What lugnuts do you guys run with black rota slipstreams? I want something that matches them more than the chrome ones I have right now. Im also looking for something with a key.

Thanks

I think Kyokugen lugs have 7 sides instead of the regular 6. If they don't come in black, paint 'em.

Check out the Gorilla lug nuts from jcwhitney.com. They're only $30 and work perfectly.

Gorilla = GHETTO

I would go with the black McGard / Motegi splinedrives . They are worth the few extra bucks.

I got rid of those calipers. It seems that when your caliper paint start wearing off you should really get them fixed asap or else:

I have a brand new set of Black Kyokugen lugnuts. You can also purchase them through my work too, but I'm selling my set since my rims are coming with black lugnuts so I have no need for the Kyokugens. E-mail me.

Just because they're cheap doesn't mean they're ghetto. Ask Mista Bone who's been using them with no problems for 5 years now. Any other lug nuts are NOT worth the "few" extra bucks.

Yes they do have the tendency to strip when people overtorque them with air guns. Use some good ol' elbow grease and they will be cool.
