i say go for the red..spoon are nice(a bit pricey)zenki's are nice(although they are known to fade)and..ray's lugnuts are very nice(also a bit $$$)hey..if they hold the wheel in place and look somewhat decent..thats about all you can hope for..DO NOT GET KYOKUGENS(or strip-o-kugens as a lot of people call them)

Don't get kyokugen's if you want open ended, damn those were annoying. I had black mugen's, atleast those didn't strip.

The ppl stripping kyokugens must be using air guns on them. That's just plain stupidity.

I've been using them for almost 3yrs on one car an almost 2yrs on another and my friend has had his for 3yrs too. They aren't anymore stripped than they day we bought them.

i watched them strip by hand on 2 seperate cars, absolutely no air tools. you would have to be a moron to use air on aluminum lugs.
