Yeah, my Rotas and my ASAa require tapered lug nuts...

I also thought that it aided in hub centering....

^^^ Yup. My P45's and my Enkei's require tapered lug nuts.

David, let me know when you get your package so I can delete the tracking in my ups folder

An account I set up years ago allows me to order them whenever I want
Ask Anthony [erraticevo] how much he saved when he bought the GTC-01's from me

GT Design Titanium Lug Nuts or kics Tim (both titanium), but the GT spec would flow more with my rims, since you've seen the color I'm sure you'll agree...

SOME GOOD NEWS!!!


Who's in for a group buy??? I just got my reply from garagespec



Hi Tim,

For the Evo's you will need M12X1.5
I will check with the master distributor today to see what our quickest turn around will be for these lug nuts.

Best price I can offer for 1 set is $94 shipped
If buy five sets or more I can offer them at $76 per set + $30 shipping for entire order.

Please let me know how that sounds

Thanks,
Eddie

Garage spec

Tim, these are great, especially if we get 5+ people, mark me down as 1 set, as much as I would love to get the GT spec Titanium ones...I cant even justify spending 500 bucks on lugs..

Nope cant run aftermarket lugs on OEM rims. That is unless you want your wheel to pop off while driving.

Damn... I like the evo 5 in black, 5/114.3 with a 42 offset, but i know those are out of my price range.. haha
Plus with my luck that lip wouldn't last a day on my driving style. Wish they had more 16 inch' selections. Thanks for the help.
