Is it really neccessary to quote images? This makes the load times slower and also makes the use of larger space in the thread. It's really annoying when the page moves up cause the image loaded while your trying to read something.

McGard Spline Tuner Lug Nuts are around $80-$90 for a complete set. They are closed-end and light weight at 32 grams each except for the lock that weighs 36 grams. They also have a floating base, except for the lock, like the Project Kics R26, R40, and Neo Chromes and are zinc coated at the base to improve torque tension.

Here is a link to McGard with more information:

And a link to Summit Racing for pricing

Some people appreciate it, so they don't have to go google it. I think it's nice.


Gamedog: do those come in blue?

I got the Kicks R40's with locks. Prolly one of the better sets out there. Those Volks are pretty sweet too. First time I have seen them.

I like the safety mechanism for the Volks but $230 is what I'm able to find online.
