Ok, so i found these on group buy center for 55 shipped. I was talking to my friend, Billy Bob and he wasn't too impressed with them....Did a search, I only found an instance where the lug got jammed cuz of an impact hammer or something....anyone using these/have experience/know anything more??

One of my friends has a set, the Key warps, i'd pass on them, instead, check out http://www.mcgard.com/automotive/tuner_lugnuts2.html those.

 

Yes splinedrives are COOL!

Ive heard of the strenght of the ky-- being questionable, and the key like mentioned above warped, not saying it'll happen to you but just warning ya.

Like EBC brake pads, questionable quality also, some people say they are good, some say they are bad.

 

SplineDrives cost 95 USD (though it does come with a set of wheel locks); personally, I'd save money and just stay with what you've got.

 

i have them, regular changes with a cordless drill and 80 lb-ft. torques, no problems yet (probably changed them a good 20 times, owned since early spring)

 

i have the kyo's got them for %35 from a fren of mine...the black coating is still there and haven't had any probs with them for the 4 months or so that i've had them...

 

they only cost 35 bucks..group buy for 55..what a rip

 

Damn, if they're only $35 (comes down to $1.75 a lug), let me get a set, EPGONZALEZ direct me to them!!

 

Where can I get them for $35? I would buy them for that price.

 

Yea, where?? I'd love to know....

 

I was the one that had the problem w/ them on the post you probably saw...I had two sets of keys go bad and they were torqued on my car so hard, I needed to beat a ratchet on to them to pull em off! Not recommended, at any price.

I'm still looking for a replacement set that is good quality and comes in black...

 

Hmm getting mixed reviews. I gotta stop wasting money on this stuff. Save up bigger and better stuff. Btw, F1 Soul, which lug nuts are those off your car?

 

dynamic autosports in irvine..i dont know if they gave me special pricing..but i just bought some a few days ago..tired of haivng to use that spline drive(mugen) every change i change my tires at the track..they seem decent..i torque to seventyfive..with antisieze..i think your imapact wrench is bending that tool..

 

ya i got them at the same place as EP...i think that was OUR cost i don't know how much they sell them to other people.

 

The nicest ones I've seen are the Ray's lugs but the black ones are ALWAYS on back order. They give us like 10 sets every few months and they sell out instantly then no lugs for another few months. They are pricey though. I have a set in blue on my car and they work great.
