Kics LeggDura fancy locking aluminum ("duralumin") lug nuts
I figured as long as I was trying to get the lightest wheels possible I would also go ahead and get the lightest lug nuts possible. I know, it seems like a waste of money, but I think it arguably isn't. Anyway, attached is a pic of the lugs on my kitchen scale. As you can see: all 20 weigh 442 grams (a hair less than 1 pound). That makes each lug 22.1 g! (Each lug weighs about as much as four US quarters.) That's about as light as I could find anywhere.
I'm just posting this for reference purposes (in-case someone wants confirmation of the manufacturer's claims).
... Later ...
I bought a more accurate scale. It gave the same measurement (within half a gram).

Nice lugs!
It's the details that count, people who know what to look for appreciate the small things.

Our studs have 12 x 1.5 threads. Note that "tuner" lug nuts (like these) and factory lug nuts aren't the same shape and are not interchangeable.
