Lug nuts length with TC 105 N ? 27/35/50 mm ? Advices on brand ? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

NSV · 03-25-2013, 10:38 AM

Hello,

I've just received my WedsSports TC 105N. Really nice wheels, I hope to have them mounted quickly.

I know the lugs are M12x1,25 on our car.

However, I've seen various sizes for the lug nuts : for instance, Rays have short 27 mm, medium 35 mm and long 50 mm available.

I'm no fan of looooong nuts that protrude a lot from the wheels, so please tell me which ones I should buy in order to have a good tightening without protruding too much.

Thanks in advance

I have the 34mm Muteki closed ends and they're about perfect in my opinion.

I had Rays lugs in the past, red ones to be exact. I liked them and they felt weightless. My only discrepancy was that they faded to pink after one year.

Ill be getting a silver,black color for my new set of wheels.

Get steel closed ones. The aluminum ones will always fade over time and if you plan on taking the wheels on/off every now and then, they''ll start to wear out.

I m a bit disappointed by the Rays going pink ?!

CSG lugs if you can afford them. @MikeCSG

Thank you !

Any idea if shorter ones would have made the trick, or not ?

Foobar · 03-25-2013, 05:24 PM

The OEM ones work as well, but look pretty cheap IMHO.

May be the lighting but both the lug nuts and wheel are black.

NSV · 03-25-2013, 06:59 PM

Does someone have the shortest lug nuts with his wheels ? I mean around 27 mm and close ended ?
