Overpriced for what they are. 2 of my R40 washer seats are broken/cracked.

Probably worth zero style points, but I've had no issues using cheap Gorilla lug nuts on my wheels. They're easy to install/remove, and they've been fine on the street and track.

Same here, a full set for $25, understated looks, work perfectly well.

I've used a couple sets of Gorilla lugs and they ended up corroding underneath and wouldn't fit the key after a couple years....maybe I had some knock offs, but never had the same happen to the McGard splines

Thanks I'll have to keep an eye on that. If that happens, they're so cheap I might just pick up another set lol.

Weight, looks, durability.

Other than that, as long as it holds the proper torque, that's all that REALLY matters. For most people, the priority will be looks > weight > durability
