Hey guys, I plan on ordering extended lugs today, but I cant seem to decide what color I want. I want something that will pop out, something eye catching! I was thinking purple? I want something that would flow, and go nicely with the wheels I have right now, because I'm probably going to stick with the same wheels for a good while, even if I do get a different set, it'll still probably be silver. But yeah what color would you go with? From what these guys offer: Bronze, Red, Polished, Blue, Green, Gold, Purple, and Black.

They're reasonably cheap as well. Linked for anyone who's interested in extended lugs!

I love purple lugs so +1 for purple! But just make sure that the lugs you buy are made for OEM wheels. Because most lug nuts are shaped for after market wheels. Also, if you get a low quality lug nut, the paint will strip and fade easy so just keep that in mind. Even the expensive ass red volk lug nuts are known to fade to pink

those are cone seat, oem are typically ball seat if I am not mistaken.

Double check before you buy and die

What wheels do you have. The ones in your link appear to be cone shape.

apinwp09GBTSX

Oh yeah I forgot it depends on the wheels--- I got mb battles it should fit

cwins

well im running the g35 rays, i have no idea how the seat on those look like im useing my oem lugs from my old wheels lol

cwins

Okay, i looked around g35 and 350z forums. tuner lugs should work fine?

but back to my question, what color!?

TSXKid2010

I have a PWP and i'm going for a PWP/blue theme. I got blue extended mutekis on white work emotion CR-Kais and they go really well together! idk about yours though, but if it was me i'd go blue!

cwins

TSXKid2010

Joe, I almost blew $200 on lugs LOL. I did blow $100 on lugs as well lmao.

apinwp09GBTSX

...blue or purple...red should work too

cwins

Didn't know they had neo chrome! So I went with those instead I love neo chrome!

sorry for going off topic, but doesn't those rims poke out a lot in the front? I have a set in my garage and when I put them on for fun they fit flush with the rear but poked out a lot in the front....I always wondered if it would have been fixed with a drop though...

cwins

Yeah, this is what they look like on my car, as of right now. No drop. My coils will be here the coming up tuesday, ill post pics of what it looks like after a drop!

larryt1026

that looks pretty good. and that is just simply putting them on? no extra mods to make them fit?

Puppetmaster

Closed end if you're concerned about corrosion on the studs. Open end if you're running extended studs for whatever reason, or tracking the car, or don't care about corrosion.

Puppetmaster

1st Gen G35 and 350Z OEM rims are all conical seat. 2nd Gen G35 and G37 are shank.

MC MiYoung3269

Arent the Acura studs coated? I remeber reading that somewhere..

Mr. NC

A drop will fix that front poke, looks quite good actually.

Tiffany Blue lugs...but that's just me lol

cwins

Thanks! Yup just slapped them on, no mods!

Thanks! Tiffany blue does sound good, but where can you even find a set haha, or something close to tiffany!
