i just got Work Emotion wheels and they have a anodized blue valve stem and i am considering getting the blue Work lugs to match.

i have heard that these anodized lugs tend to fade? i dont want to be rolling around on $125 teal lugs in a couple months - lol

anyone have experience with these? Rays, Work, etc...

 

They are pretty good, a friend of mine has red ones [work], and it's been about 4 months now, daily driven and the color still looks the same as the first time he had them.

Rays on the other hand [which I ran] the red turned slightly lighter after 4 months

 

i bought a set of blue zenki lugs with matching valvestems and the lugs faded. i only bought them a few months ago. it sucks. they went from dark blue to a really light blue.

 

Almost every colored lug i've seen has faded, from Zenki to Rays, etc.

 

so then apparently the Work valve stems will fade also?
