You want color?
Kics neochro

I have the standard R40

J's is good too, they're chromoly, and way stronger than most lugs on the market...IMO, stronger than the likes of Rays and Work.

Volk nuts............?

Where did you buy your Volks? When I received my
GTCs they came with lugs and that special tool to
install. If you didn't buy them from Midnight Auto
Supply or a private party find out why you didn't
receive the Volk lugnuts with the wheels. LOL

I have the short Rays...the extended Rays...and the Kics neochro...the Rays are good..but they do chip if some idiot uses a impact wrench. The colors are a plus to some.

Though...with gold challenges...I think that the only colors that would be neutral and "match" would be black or chrome. In my opinion though.

Either way get some locks and carry it with you. Order a spare key and leave that at home in a safe place.

I have black long Rays duraluminum. You should check with the vendor, one of the Volks (I forget which) requires you use the non duraluminum nuts, need a special kind.

The kics project lugs are good cause the end that touches the rim swivels. Good so that it doest spin on the rim and scratch the paint off. I wish a knew about these a year ago when I first got my works....

you should get black on gold. you can get Mcguards in black as well. those don't cost as much, aint as light, but they also are like Kics where they don't scratch the seat, and provide a tighter grip.

Yo Louis...the project kics are good, but like senjen said, go with the works. I would have bought work lugnuts long time ago, but I don't like how the red or blue would look on my gold rims. I just like the kics cause they don't rub/spin into the lugnut hole. You know where to go for the work lugs! (samson)

Yeah Sen, I got a "work" shirt from the man. Nice shirt!
