Long Black Nuts

Lug nuts commonly become a "Bling" item, I myself had been running T1R titanium open ended lug nuts for a few years, and decided it was time for a change, I have been seeing the bling blang nuts on some hellafail bullshit lately, so I need some more distance. I decided to go with some plain old Rays extended wheel nuts, I happen to be running ARP extended wheel studs, so without researching I pulled the trigger on them thinking "Extended" means for extended wheel studs, guess what they didn't fit Fail! I contacted Evasive Motorsports, talked to them and steered me into their own EVS tuning "Super Lap" lugs, these instead of being duraluminum happen to be made out of steel, and will withstand constant removal and installation. Here's the low down, these aftermarket "tuner" lugs are designed to fit in aftermarket wheels, whereas stock wheels use an acorn style lug nut that fits in the machined hole in the hub of the wheel. Use of either lug on the wrong wheel will result in an unsafe torque where the wheel can fall off. Back on topic the "Super Lap" lugs managed to thread all the way over my extended studs and give the nice plain appearance I was looking for. These are very high quality and come packaged nicely and with a price of $134.00, It's honestly a bargain on todays standards, when most other quality lug nuts cost in excess of $200.00 it seems.  Also, here are a few more tips, always ALWAYS torque your wheels, an over or under torqued wheel runs risks of coming off, and check your torque often. I use 80-90 ftlbs as a good rule of thumb. Remember never use a torque wrench to break a lug nut loose, and always zero it out when your done, also loosen your lugs and tighten them in star pattern.
