I'm looking for some Chrome/Silver ones that will not tarnish or rust as I'm sick of the crap zinc coated ones. I'm on my 2nd set (1st set was replaced after 3 weeks) and they are rubbish.

Been trying to find a set of extended alloy nuts for mt 07 STi for a while... think they are sometimes called 'tuner nuts' in certain places. They look great and will remove the problem of touching my alloys when I try to remove the wheels as space is a bit tight on my Rotas.


Cheers,
Grant

lol some interest then

Darms, be interested to see your pics

My preference is for internal drive as I have some nice new very light, rare and expensive ris I'm about to get re-painted Although if the price is right I'd be happy with regular nuts.

Agree re the extended nuts, unless you are gpng for a stud upgrade to match they are pointless anyway

Any wish lists as far as specific manufacturers go?

Yeah they seem to be a bench mark, but I have spent some time on this thread and there are many options
