    Titanium lug nuts are perfect 👌😁 Titanium lug nuts are 29% stronger and nearly 50% lighter than steel which results in a decreased rotational wheel mass. I know where can you get it at a great price 😁😁

      They are very nice lug nuts. So far they have proven to be very strong and haven't marred the wheels.

    Do they by any chance have purple cap ones? I been looking everywhere and cant find where to buy them. Only place i found them was ebay but at $68 which I know at that price they are kncok offs

      I don't believe so, unfortunately. I would definitely avoid ebay. The ammount of fakes on that site are vast. The last thing you want is to have lug nuts sheer off when driving.
      The caps come out easily and could be painted or anodized to whatever color you desire.

    If i’m running normal wheel spacers on my G with my
    Work wheels will I have to take off the caps or no? Also are these the extended versions or normal ones? Thank you

    • @Mikey6048
      @Mikey6048  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Depending on your spacers. It comes down to how long your studs are. Are they built in to the Spacer or are the spacers slipped over the lugs studs? If the studs are extended you'll probably have to use these lugs without the caps. If they are standard sized lug studs on your spacers, the caps can be left on.
      These studs are longer channeled than standard lug nuts by at least double the channel length.

      They work well on these STI wheels. These are the 2015 version. Lug nuts are basically universal as long as you get the right thread pitch.

      @@fidelj3025 STI wheels are tapered. They torqued well. And held torque. My Freind bought my STI and he's had zero issues. The STI wheels are Enkei, which makes aftermarket wheels. I see no reason they would make the seat any different for the STI wheels.

      @@Mikey6048 yes all stock wheels are tapered but the if you compare the stock and aftermarket lug nuts they both taper off differently. Stock is a wider taper vs the narrow taper of the aftermarket and won't seat properly. The narrow taper of the aftermarket lugs will have a small gap from the wider taper of the stock wheels

    Hi...can you tell me, what is the outside diameter of the 2 socket keys. I have the Rohana RC10, the lug nut hole diameter is only 0.900". Thank you.

    • @Mikey6048
      @Mikey6048  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The sockets are low profile "Thin walled". To make sure they work with all standardized rim lug nut cavaties.
      Unfortunately, I do not own this vehicle any more and am not able to measure the sockets. I apologize for the inconvenience. I would contact "SubiSpeed" and ask them. Thier customer service is pretty helpful. And they might be able to get the answer you seek.
      If you do get an exact answer. Please update this post, and I will add this information to the description section of this video for other viewers.

      @@teamhonzilla I don't see a reason why they wouldn't fit. It's not like these Lug nuts are any wider than factory Acorn style nuts. They actually appear slightly skinnier.
      You won't actually know unless you order a set, since you altered the OEM spec slightly. I hate to say order a set from a company that allows returns, and see if they fit.
      I personally feel that they should. The lug nut gaps in the wheel should be pretty accommodating. But I can't guarantee that information as accurate.
