Anodized Lug Nuts. What do you guys thing about these? Does anyone have them? Getting my rims and I was thinking of getting the Anodized Red Lug Nuts. I've seen them for as low as $60 and as high as $135.

$135 dollars is obscene for something that would get noticed as little as your lug nuts... i think theyre kind of a waste of money, but if youve got a bunch of cash burning a hole in your pocket, go for it, they could look nice..

Yeah I feel you but, I noticed them like 3 times... I'm not going to pay 135 for the nuts. That's crazy.

i can see paying 135 for lug nuts. i mean if i had like wheels that costed 5k, 135 isn't that much. but i'll say this, them bad boys better be some nice lug nuts and have good security, not some regular acorn style nuts.

I didn't say I would pay $135 dollars for lugs nuts...Just giving you guys an idea of the cost....

I said that i've seen them from $60 - $135.

The reason I posted it was to see if anyone may have see any a little cheaper...

And yes Chrome 135 for some nuts is nuts...Lol

Atl go up to Butler or some rim places out by me and get some lug nuts that you have to take off with a special wrench....that way it would be harder for someone without the wrench to take off....let me know I'll make some calls. Holla at me.... :wink:

those look like Excalibur lug nuts (I bought from jegs.com for like $25.00)I hadthem in blue once the key to remove them strips or breaks...real easily...if a shop put them on w/a torch wrench it must be torqed back off other wise you will strip it if you have a flat tire like I did had to wait two for them to send me another one....then I threw them in the trash...plus the anodized coating comes off real easily...in about a week chrome underneath starts to peel etc.etc...cheap is not good.. now I have Gorilla...Tuner Style lug nuts in chrome..
