Default Open end lug nuts

Is there a specific brand that is good, or pretty much what ever color I want go for it? I'm getting ARP extended wheel studs. So I'm just looking at options. Thanks

Just remember that OEM wheels need lug nuts with a ball shaped seating area (there is an OEM lug nut with an open end - do a search on topics with titles containing open and lug), and aftermarket wheels need lug nuts with a tapered seating area.

i like ym project Kiks so far. They are pricey but i like them. i had the J's racing ones and they strip like crazy. i have them on my Skunk2 extended studs on my S2k and i hated them. Just dont use them with OEM wheels.

be careful with open ended lugnuts., rust can be a problem after awhile.

Muteki...holding strong for two years now. And that's with alot of on/off wheel swapping because of AutoX and tire rotations.

I also have the open-ended Muteki's on my Integra. I've had them for about a year with no problems; they're fairly cheap also ($32 shipped). Be weary about color though, most colored lug nuts I've seen have faded.
