Lug nuts which ones?
So I just picked up some RPF1's and need to get some lugs. Which brands are good? I'm not trying to spend $200 on lug nuts. I'm looking for tuner style and locks. Are McGard lug nuts good?

Neochros are nice on some wheels, you can't go wrong with a set of TR1 lugs either...

McGard makes good ones. The SplineDrive Lug Nuts are good, and affordable.

Wow, so just as I suspected, RPF1's look badass on the CL, what are the dimensions of the ones you've got on right now and whats your drop?

Wheels are 17x7.5 wrapped in 215/40 tires. When the tires wear down, i'm going to go with 235 or 245. I'm sitting on Bilstein sports and H&R sports...which I'm thinking about selling Need to go lower

I got the lugs in today. I didn't notice this in the description, but they have the spinning seat on the lugs no scratching for me.

DGR lug nuts
A friend of mine recommended DGR forged lugs, he is a Suby guy and had a coupon for 25off from RS25 so I figured why not. They also give lifetime warranty against fading and chipping (couldn't find this anywhere else)

I opted for the limited bronze run ,
*LIMITED EDITION - ONLY 10 SETS WILL EVER BE OFFERED*
thats what got me but it was actually just a paint code mess up, they came out nice tho!

anyways they look like this.
104 shipped. worth the money for the warranty IMO

Aluminum(AL7075) vs SCM(chromoly steel) vs Titanium

I prefer the Chromoly steel for cost, strength reliability and resistance to rust. Blox has a version of lug nuts in "SCM435", as well as Buddy Club and EVS tuning.

they are long 50mm/open ended version - my kinda style.
