I never put them on my LMGT4's but this should give an idea..





The Black lugs that come with the NISMO LMGT4's...


it takes an extra minute to take them off if you loose the key...

It is far better to trash the lugs than to strip the threads on the studs..... much easier to replace even if it is a little expensive...

Therefore since these lugs are somewhat soft like aluminum, it should be better than using steel lugs and overtorquing them and f---ing up your studs...

I hope you guys aren't using impact guns on your Ray's lug nuts.

take it from me, I had those sh*tty Kyokugen locking ones before....a few rusted onto the studs and I had to have them broken off.....and then another time, the shop used an impact gun and stripped the heads....same situation, had to have them broken off (which would be a MAJOR ***** with nice rims)

Those are the lugs I have, they look sweet with my diamond black GT-V's. Seriously, I've received alot of compliments on the lugs, because most people haven't seen them! It really brings out the rims/tires! But I'm a known ricer! So take it for what its worth!!!!!

the adapter is there so you dont scratch the inside of the nismo wheels using a larger diameter socket...
