Yes, you read it right! Show me your nuts! :naughty:

Been wanting some wheel nuts, I have a white ek9 with the oem wheels (also white), not sure what colour wheel nuts to get. I prefere the ones that stick out, look the mutts nuts! :)) Don't want to spend a fortune though!

Anyway, let's see what you got!
 
Blue and red eventually fade so i went for Black anodised rays nuts.

I have Red Ultralite nuts, look great, and quality is decent.

I knew it would attract some attention! :lol:

They both look good so far, just keen to know what the red Ultralites would look like on oem wheels. I want them to stick out like on your wheels. The red stand out better as well as you have darker wheels.

Seen these but don't think this kind of blue will look right:New 20pcs Forged Racing Wheel Lug Nuts M12 x P1.5 Blue on eBay (end time 10-Nov-10 15:53:35 GMT)

These won't look right either, not long enough and I'm guessing the quality will be crap:

Cracking threat youve started , been thinking about getting new nuts lately . Some good ideas here :nice:
 
Yep, definitely some good sets! I'm spoilt for choice on the colour though from the above links! Just to confirm, for the ek9, the size we need is M12 x P1.5?

correct sir!

i like the rays normal size nuts as they have 4 locking nuts with the set.
 
remember you dont want to run aftermarket wheel nuts with OEM wheels
taper is different
 
although tegiwa do their won nuts with the correct taper for oem wheels
 
DO NOT run alu wheel nuts on track cars, seriously

I ran open ended alu nuts on ARP studs but they can't cope with the heat and last track day all the wheel nuts on one of my front wheels loosened slightly

Running steel open end ones now and even just torqueing the wheels up they feel 100% better quality and fit

Just for anyones information! Also MSA rulings require competition cars to run steel wheel nuts for similar reasons

They look really good :drool: Any chance of seeing photos of the car?

I was thinking about the titanium coated ones but they won't look good on mine with white OEM wheels.
