Default Blitz Type 01

Hey guys, I just picked up a set of Blitz Type 01 wheels (in transit currently) and I don't know which size lugs to go with, extended or regular. Also, I've narrowed the choice of lugs down to three:

Mugen silver lugs
Kics Project Neochro
Kics Project Regular

If the short lugs don't fit correctly or look weird with the wheels, I will rule out the Mugen lugs and go with Kics, probably the R26 or R40 regular b/c I love the look of yellow letters on black with a Spa car (it's all in the details, right?).

Thanks in advance for the info!

i went with black volk short closed ended lugs. i did not want lugs that stuck out too much and i dont like open ended because you can see the rusted stud.

I could not see the rusted stud, I guess that's a good thing though!

Thanks for the info, I would rather go with the short lugs but wanted to make sure that they would leave enough room with the wheels.

Kics Project R26s, here I come!

I went with a set of gorillas that look just like stock, just slightly longer. I think that either stock-style silver/chrome lugs or maybe short kics r26 neochro are the only lugs that will really flow with silver blitz. Here's a shitty picture of when I tested the wheels on with stock lugs... the gorillas look exactly the same only slightly longer.

Thanks for the replies guys, I ended up going with an open-ended spline-type lug setup (spline on inside) to make sure that I wouldn't damage the wheels or the outside of the lugs by install/removal. They're silver, basically the same color as the rest of the hardware so it should flow well.
