$59.99. Says it's a set of 20. /shrug
You can find Mutekis for about $30-40 for a set of 20.

And while Mutekis are made by Kics, the quality isn't as nice as the R40 or R36, and the key just might break on you. Either way, you're better off with Mutekis than you are with Kyokugens.

And if you're already considering spending so much on lug nuts, know that there are plenty of other good options out there... Nismo, Rays, Advan, Project Mu, KYO-EI, and a few other ones that I can't seem to remember right now

I have to physically restrain myself from buying everything you have! TWO, count em TWO local guys have attempted to sell the same Nismo wheels you ahve, FOR GOOD PRICES.

I turned both down because i don't want to copy you

I just want lugs that look different. Is it hard to paint the stock lugs? Like what if i painted them LS?

I'm going with black chrome Gorilla lugs. They look pretty much the OEM lugs, but in a shiney black finish. I don't like tuner style and/or open face lugs. Almost every BMW runs black lugs and I've always liked the look.

If you're looking for a blue-ish lug nut, look at the Project Kics Heptagon Caliber 24's.


I'd get a set if they came in black or gunmetal, but this blue is all they make (Titanium coating).

OP, I've never seen a G your color. Lakeshore Slate looks nice! Have you narrowed down a few lug nuts you're interested in yet?
