So i got a set of used sub zeros the other day from a kid that only wanted $215 for the set. They're definitely used, but other than 1 having a bit of curb rash and another having a tiny ding on the lip they're pretty solid. Only issue I have with them is the guy said that the paint started chipping so he rattle canned them white again but he didn't use metal paint so they're sort of dull looking. For now, i don't want to get them powdercoated because it'd be too expensive for my finances and i already tried spraying them with gloss white but they still just don't pop to me, so i decided to get lug nuts to compensate for the dullness of the wheels. Well when i was looking to replace my motor mount inserts (i have the drop engineering motor mounts too) i saw on their homepage that they just released closed ended lug nuts and they have both sizes too, so no car left behind! (M12 x 1.5 and M12 x 1.25). They really caught my eye because of how shiny and bright the color of them is and they're only $58! can't beat the price, and for how good I think they'll look i'm definitely going to order them... so my question is... do you guys think i should go with blue or purple to make them pop??? I have a black hatch so either one would match pretty well..

Here's basically what the wheels look like:


and the blue & purple lugs:

 

To be honest $85 dollars for those lugs seems a little high (those look like reg. tuner lug nuts powdercoated) Blox, Muteki, Skunk 2, etc. make forged lug nuts for less than that. I dont know if your looking closed or open ends but you have a lot more different options IMO.

 

Are you sure they're Sub Zeros? Cause you posted Attacks. Also, try stripping off the old paint before you repaint them. You'll also need to clear them to get them looking shiny, I'm assuming this is why you don't like how they look..

I have a set of open ended Drop lugs sitting in my room, they look to be of decent craftmanship. They're anodized at least and not painted.

As for the whole reason behind this thread... I vote blue I guess. Based on nothing other than I felt like choosing blue.

 

I would go with the purple ones

 

dang, i guess i should have researched them more before i bought them. oh well at least they weren't expensive. thanks for the info though!

and thanks for everyone's replies!
