I'm looking for a reasonably priced quality lug nut set that comes with a lug nut key or lock set for my Varrstoens that I'll be getting installed next week.
I prefer a black or red short closed end lug set.
I came across this "Varrstoen lug nut set" on ebay (not short version though).

Varrstoen offers the same lugs on their site too.

I'm not sure of the quality and was curious as to whether anyone else on Driver has had any personal experience with these.
I'm not looking to chince out on lug nuts but I'm also not interested in spending $150 or more just for status.
In researching I've found that a lot of people have had issues with the Mutekis lug key getting stripped.
The MXP and McGaurds seem very popular.
Any advise would be appreciated guys.
Thanks

BTW, if anyone has a used set that matches my description above in good condition lemme know.

 

can't go wrong with McGard Spline lugs.

 

I came across some McGards that have:
-bulge cone seat
-regular cone seat
-splinedrive cone seat

Whats the diff betwween the 3, are these for oem wheels?
I'm obviously only looking for lugs for aftermarket wheels.

 

I think I might give Gorilla lug nuts a try.

 

i run 2 guerilla locks on all my after market wheels... they're durable and feel very solid.. the locks feel more like lugs and not OEM locks.

 

What color gorilla lugs are you using?
Just wandering how the finish on the red & black lugs hold up.

 

what offset did you decide on?

 

LOL, hey bro whats up!
I ended up getting +12.
Planning on getting everything installed 1st thing next Sat.
U were one of the 1st fools I was going to pm pics to
Only thing I can't decide on right now is black or red lugs

 

Haha thanks man! Can't wait to see pics! Don't forget me lol..I tihink +12 was a good choice for your ride height at the moment..and best of all you can always figure out if you want to go wider and get some 10mm spacer or whatever size you choose and not be stuck with a +0 you can't reverse.. on the lugs..I thought about red lugs but I don't think id be happy with them..I'm probably gonna get some neochrome colored lugs or just the plain silver ones to contrast the wheels..what tires did you get? And did you get a camber kit and new springs?

 

Yeah I already have a rear camber kit on the car.
The tires that are on the Varrs are fairly new Falken 452s F-255 35/19 R-285 35/19.
BEEFY!!
Already got the Tokico HP shocks and will be picking up some 350Z Tein S-Techs this week.
I still can't decide on which color lugs, either red or black.
Either way I'll prob be going with Gorilla's.
Next Saturday can't come quick enough (install), I have to find something to do before I go ape ****.
I'm like a kid on Christmas Day where u can only look at the presents and not touch!

 

oh yeah i forgot you have a camber kit lol man those are beefy for +12's...and falken 452s run large so its even more beefy than a regular 255/285...i hope those rear fenders are flattened out lol

good choice getting some different springs..should keep you happy while letting you get in and out of parking areas haha iknow how you feel atleast youve bought your parts! i still havnt hit the "buy" button on anything! but today ill probably get the 2 tires i still need and monday probably buy the varrstoens/coilovers/camber kit

its about preference...i think black will blend in with the wheel and would look great but i think red lugs arent for me..i think they look weird but it does give it contrast and go with the tail lights.. ill probably go with these..

Yeah rolled the fender last week, they better not rub.
Those lugs look tight!
I haven't been able to find any pics with those on black wheels though.
BTW, what color G you rockin?

I don't know if ur buying new or used tires but here's a great site that I've used in the past for new tires.
http://www.tires-easy.com/start.html
Their prices on certain brands can't be beat.

 

delete!

 

oh alright i hope they dont..but ull just have to dial in more negative camber if they do..or sell the tires and go smller..im going 245 front 275 rear and they are continentals..run large like falken 452..

yeh i love these lugs...i want the project neochrome ones but they are $250 so these have the look for have the price..

my G is brilliant silver..

thanks for the site! ive been using tireeasy.com to check prices for yrs lol never bought from them though..i have my front tires..got them on craigslist and im buying my rears used almost new for real cheap
