thanks guys...i heard that the lug holes on the gtc's are too narrow for tuner lugs and when you buy the wheels, it comes with special gtc lug nuts....just want to confirm that.

You have been waiting for 4 months?!!!!! . . . As I pick myself off of the living floor . . . Whom did you order your wheels from? Chris at F1 said that my wait could be as long as 3 months. All of these long waits for parts is killing me.

you're correct.

the duraluminum nuts have a sleeved key, in which you cover the nut with the key. like a hand turning on a door ****.

the GT series have narrow holes, therefore it's imperative to use a inner key. like a housekey into a door ****.

i think the lengthened duraluminum nuts will work... around 75% sure.

So can anyone confirm that Rays lugs will fit through the GT-C holes? They now offer Rays Extended lugs, what about those?

Thanks!

After a little research, it looks like Rays sells special lug nuts just for the GT-C's However, I have not found any retailer who carries them yet.

This is direct from Rays site (black box, notice the word GT-C)

So did you get a set? Know of any resellers or other lugs that fit the GT-C's?
