I got forged chromoly BC (Buddy club) ones they’re not lightweight but they are tuner nuts and feel solid.

Personally aluminum wheels nuts don’t fill me with much confidence, especially after they have been torqued up and removed several times.

you want to be spending around £100 for a good set, any less and you risk your wheels coming off. Also never buy cheap unbranded nuts from the likes of ebay as they are crap quality and strip very easily
 
I'm using some black buddyclub ones with a internal star key. They are heavy duty plus steel so robust. Got them form japshop
When I had some rays nuts I wasn't confident with them as they were alloy and once tightened up took a bit to get off.
 
try Blox wheel nuts, they are cheaper but they are very good & do not fade. I have WEDS lug nuts & they faded.
 
Get some from rarerims.co.uk, they are steel and wont brake like alloy nuts plus they are approved for motorsport use. They also sell on ebay at good prices. Got some on mine in chrome, you can also get them in red,blue and black. Check them out :)
 
Ive looked on Japshop and the only ones i can see that look good are the ULTRALITE ones but i dont know if they are any good?
 
rare rims, that's what i'm going to get for my new wheels.
 
ive got some blue ones from rare rims they are good quality not light and do the job but my blue ones are now a bit of blue mainly chrome from where it has flaked off :(

im going for ultralite black extended ones or open ended ones!

are ultralite ones any good??
 
Ive only heard good things from ultralite wheel nuts!

they are also internal locking so no scraping of paint when undoing/tightening ;)
 
Ultralite ones are pretty good, some people have horror story's about them mainly from installing them incorrectly, all good if you follow the guide on the box!

Had a set for about 3 years still going strong on my other half's car. On mine i purchased some of these bit more expensive but very well made.
