That's awesome. I think I might go with muteki extended open ended lugs. I really like the blue blaze ones but I'm not paying $114 for lug nuts.

Hmmm. I'm about to do 17x9 +35 offset wheels with Eibach sportline drop. I got the white line from camber bolts. Do you think I will have to do anything else to make them fit?

Since the Muteki's are painted and chip easily, anyone know of a way to protect the paint on a new set? Is there a spray or anything I can use to help prevent it? I have red SR48s and yeah... chipped pretty badly at this point. Don't want anodized aluminum because they fade to pink.

Not really, painted-anything + pressure + friction usually ends up with the paint flaking off.

Currently out of stock... but we have a Chromoly version coming soon in black, and another batch of these Aluminum lugs as well...
