I'm pretty sure both the muteki ones and the ones you have posted probably do chip.

I'm pretty sure I'm just going to get the mutekis since nobody has any information on these "Ti" lugs.

I think these mutekis might be a bit more durable than the other colors. From what I've researched I couldn't find anybody saying anything negative about the muteki neo's.

I mean, the majority of lugs will eventually fade/chip. I would definitely get a set of Ray's but they are notroriously known to fade. I'm just looking for a set that is not going to look horrible in a few months.

[QUOTE]My friend has a set of these on his EP3 and the finish does not chip unlike the other Muteki lugs that come in red/blue which does chip. Finish is incredibly durable and in case you didnt know Muteki is a branch of Project Kics. Do not use impact wrench on these lugs, this goes for any aftermarket lug for that matter. A nice alternative to the pricy Project Kics....perfect for a baller on a budget.

I wouldnt buy mutekis either, they're junk. Lug nuts are a fairly important peice of hardware. I'd recommend something in chromoly steel, because they're less likely to strip, or crossthread... just my two

Does anyone know if the Kics Neo's have problems with fading or color wear? I'm looking into getting a set of the R40's to go with the LM's.

Thanks for the post. This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for... somebody that actually has personal experience the lugs. Not.. "i heard from a friend of a friend that these lugs blah blah"
