July 21, 201510 yr Just fitted my rota grid drifts and the guy I bought them from gave me these gold wheel nuts and they have done the job but imho the look a bit chavvy and the quality is poor and they stick out so far??Which wheel nuts do you guys recommend and locking nuts too I need these ASAP!!
July 22, 201510 yr I've never looked at wheel nuts/lugs and thought they look chavy :D But Muteki do a good range but lots of fakes about.so have to be minds full where you gte them from. But only thing I would look for is stee, avoid alloy read some horror stories thats out me off. :(

July 22, 201510 yr Author After a bit more digging around these both seem highly recomended. The first one though is it likely if overtightened the internal thread might get rounded off? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Tuner-Wheel-Nuts-x-20-12x1-25-Fit-Subaru-Impreza-WRX-STI-Legacy-Forester-/230783137359?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item35bbbf364f http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231344553100?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
July 23, 201510 yr yeah avoid aluminum. lets face it for the small amount of weight you save it's noth worth loosing a wheel. [emoji6]

July 24, 201510 yr yeah mate,I will say though dont use a air gun to tighten them up,i use a tourge wrench and tighten to 80lb,dont let garage airgun them on as they have their guns set on full so can use them on everything and allways over tighten wheel nuts.I like these lug nuts as they dont stick out very far and they are thinner then standed scooby nut which dont fit lots of aftermarket rims,i got these to fit my bk racing eclipse wheels which have small holes.

Ok I will torque to 80lb thanks mate!
July 26, 201510 yr So, to completely hijack this thread, will the stock nuts not work with rota wheels then? Just bought some and was planning on using the ones I had!
July 26, 201510 yr Nah the standard nut dont fit with rotas well mine didnt anyway Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk
July 26, 201510 yr Author I think you can get them to fit if you have a really slim width socket. I opted to buy a new set for both security and looks.
