-the part that seats on the wheel moves separate from the rest of the nut so that the wheels don't get scratched.
-the Subaru sti branded ones are these...so they are oem quality.
-project kics are super expensive for what they are
-mutely ones are safe but slightly cheesy. In the past they had finishes that came off over time. They might be better now.
-saving weight by buying lightweight lug nuts is silly. Take a piss before getting in the car and you will notice the same difference.
Uhmm oem wheels are conical like aftermarket ones in our case. These aren't Hondas with ball seat wheels.
