I AM IN THE MARKET LOOKING FOR GOOD QUIALITY/STYLE LUGS FOR MY 16"GOLD ADVAN RG
IVE BEEN SEARCHING AND SEARCHING FOR THE BEST ONE AND I ONLY CAME UP WITH TWO BRANDS

ANOTHER WINNER! 
The best one is whichever one you like most. I doubt you're going to have to worry about having a locking nut on your wheels. They'll steal the whole car first and deal with the lock later.

I'll vouch for Gorillas' durability, but they are not the best. They are the best for under $30 though.

lol, j00 suck!!
yea, Goreela = key
But... they = cheap. and the open ended ones i have = lighter.
Who cares about lug nuts. If you want a color, find the manufacturer that makes the color you want. If you care about weight, the LAST thing you should care about is how much the lugs weigh, they are minor compared to lightweight dampers (aluminum, not steel, etc) springs, rims, tires, etc.
I refuse to pay $100 for a set of lugs. That's just plain ridiculous.
What makes these $100 lugs better than my slightly heavier $25 Gorillas?
We aren't talking about racecars that need to save every tenth of a pound, we're talking mostly street cars and track day cars in here. That $70 saved could go towards much more important stuff.

Says the guy with lavender springs.

Caps Lock button, learn how to use it. Please get yourself an opinion, whatever works for you...and when you want to post this, put it in the appearance forum...no wonder people are leaving the board, it's full of a bunch of unrelated posts.

Kyokugen is only good if you plan on RARELY taking your wheels off.....
those bolts will strip quicker then you can say dayammmmmmm if you keep taking them off and putting them back on.

I never had a problem with them for my track wheels, which were on and off a lot... but then again they never saw an impact wrench.

Yes, using an impact gun is def. one mistake that could be made with Kyokugen bolts...
anyway, even though u claim to not have any problems with them once you took them out of the packaging you must have realized how weak the material seems.....
they are very light, yes, but IMO they cannot handle much pressure at all.
