I had a set of the Carmods cheapies in black (cause it doesn't rub off).
My son pinched them before I even opened them, his Liberty survived his first track day at Collie, even though he didn't torque them up enough.

You folks on your rags or something? So much hostility. So much manstruation!

ps: dont worry about buying new lugs, just soak your stockies in all the manstruation currently floating around in p-diddy land, and you will have yourself a free set of red ones......

There are also KKK wheel nuts, but you can't get them in any colour.

Still have these on my wheels, no dramas yet. Rattle guns can sometimes be cruel though, I would advise doing them by hand.

Now need lock nuts though.

We had a bunch of wheels fall off different cars underground at work, all around 20km after they had been serviced. The operators were blaming shitty wheel nuts, until it surfaced that during their daily 'pre-starts' they had never checked them, even though they knew that the wheels had been swapped out recently...end result was the operators were sacked on the spot.

At the end of the day a nut is a peice of metal with a thread in it, it's the driver's responsibility to make sure it stays tight! Check them once a week and you'll never have an issue.
