What are you running and whats your opinion on the quality?

 

I'm trying to decide on some new lug nuts for my wheels and would like some feedback on what everyone else is running.

 

I've used McGard in the past but they are expensive! They were black in color and the paint never faded. The black paint did start to show signs of wear though from use from adding/removing wheels.

 

Requirements:

-Thin profile to fit aftermarket wheels

-Set with locks

-Black in color

-Resists rust

-Does not scratch easily.

Lugshack and amazon.com has the best prices for McGards. They've been out of stock on the locking set though.

 

 

I'll be going with McGards! Thanks for the feedback erryone

Just checked myself and they do! I didn't know that. They look open ended.

Oh. I didn't think they'd be called a "wheel installation kit".

I kind of like them. But they are $90/set? Other colors? Are the valve stems TMPS compatible?
