So.... I stuck my set of Volk Challenges on the other day and just reused an old set of lugs I had around in the garage. My guess is this is not the best idea for a few reasons........Theft and Weight to name a few. So now im trying to find what is the best lug to use. Open, Closed, Long.......so many choices. I like the Rays Dura Nuts but at $145ish per set I want to make sure there is not something better im missing.

So what do all you guys run and why? Any input would be a help. Thanks.

 

I run the Rays Duraluminum in black to match my wheels. They are light as hell, and I like them cuz the key lock unless you look very closely looks the same as the other lugs. Contact Steve @ Evolution for these, tell em Alberto sent you he can easily beat the $145 price shipped......

Ditto ^^^^^6

 

 

I'm running with Buddy Club P1 Racing lugnuts.. It's some sort of Aluminum/Magnesium alloy.. So light.. as light as a pencil.. but very brittle

 

Thinking about getting the black Ray lugs as well. Wondering what to do for wheels locks though? These are just 20 lugs with a key right?

So what wheels locks are people running with these?

If I have 4 light Ray lugs and one heavy wheels lock, wouldn't that make the the weight distribution of the wheel a little off?

 

never mind, I just read that they are lugs/locks in one......so that means I separate brand of wheels locks wouldn't be needed.

 

the rays lugs come with 4 lugs that have a slightly different shape and indentation to where only the lock fits and removes it. They are all light and look the same.

 

Does anybody know of any lug nuts with "inside drive" rather than the normal outside drive? These would be ones where a hex wrench would fit into the end of the lug nut rather than the standard socket over the outside.

 

I used to have a set of those way back in the day. Only downside to these is that you can see the rust on the threads inside them. But sometimes you just don't have a choice and need to use that style.

don't know the brand of them though....sorry
