Default Rays Lug Nuts question?

I have a set of Ce28N ...looking to purchase Rays Black Lug Nuts (1.5) set. Are these good lug nuts...I've heard people say something about them a while back but I cant remember...I think it was something like they loosen after a while... is this true??????????????? Need to purchase these soon... so any help would be appreciated..... Are they worth 110 bucks??? money is not an issue b/c i like spending money on quality parts, although i would like to know anyway....
Also (1.5) size is correct for Honda S2000 right??

thanks much!

Jay

I have them, very light looks great. I thought I read somehting about someones wheel falling off a while back, but I wasnt sure if it was with these lugs.

yes 1.5 is what you need. ive been using these lugs for a while now with no problem of them loosening up but i heared stories. anyways, just make sure not to over torque them (people say to use 75 or 80 lbs of torque) as they can strip. also dont use an impact gun to install these lugs.

I'd stay far away from aluminum lugnuts in general.

They are f*cking lugnuts. The sh!t people on this forum spend their money on is unbelievable. Take the stock lugnuts, and paint them spoon blue or whatever...dont waste your money.
