Because they are the most trivial of things. Wheel nuts. A good way to blow $180 on a pointless addition. But buy whatever colour you think you need.

On your point of a good way to blow $180, its not really that pointless. The ones currently on are pretty rusted and rounded. 1 of the locking nuts was so threaded I needed to smash a socket over it just to get it off, not to mention the old threads. So I need a new set anyway. Considering wheels are the only point of contact to the road, I'd rather mine stay on.

Secondly, I had 8 hours to kill before I could order so I figured hey wonder if there's some ridiculous perth-wrx unspoken & unwritten law about wheel nuts (amongst the other cult-like opinions).

But apparently the first rule about wheel nut colour, is don't talk about wheel nut colour.
