They are very nice, I'll post a pic later. I've had the tikore ones in the past, these are just as good imo. I installed with a drop of antiseize and retorqued in 24hrs after a long drive. No issue.

Looks good. Much more reasonable than $700 for a set...

what's the benefit other than lighter and stronger? I mean... they are lug nuts. Not like they break off.

Less unsprung wt, just like a light rim. Realistically, on a street car pure bling, my stockers looked like crap, these look great. New stock lugs from the dealer are pricey, so why not?
Dats all I got!

I made a lot of lug bolts over the weekend, this is the third run of lug bolts that I have done since starting to sell them.

Thanks for all the orders.

Other than the titanium advantages noted above is another advantage they also won't rust? Thinking of purchasing-

They are not prone to corrosion like the factory bolts.

Right. I'm sold. Better go prepare myself for the upcoming onslaught of attractive women the lugs I've just ordered are about to bring my way.

Got your order and it's shipping today. It should get to you in New Zealand next week.

Any more thoughts on doing these in extended lengths?
I have 7mm spacers on the front and 15mm on rear so would need 10Xfactory +7mm (37mm thread length)and 10Xfactory+15mm(45mm thread length).
if that can be done I'm in for a set.

I think that my first longer wheel bolt run is going to be 40mm thread length.
