Floating seat "formula style" lugnuts for $49.

I mean...they're steel, it looks like. So...they'll probably hold up. The floating seat likely won't. And I'd question the quality of machining.

**edit, they're aluminum. LOL no don't buy then unless you love dying.

Muteki is a solid choice. They're not as cheap or fancy. But your wheels will stay on.

Gorilla or other known brands of tuner nuts are also available.

LOLOLOL I can't believe they use photos with rust. It's like ppl trying to see a vehicle and don't even wash it before taking pics.

Aluminum doesn't rust orange.

For OEM wheels or aftermarket?

Copies of the Kics lugs. I'd steer clear. Gorrilla makes decent cheap lugs. Muteki is great if you have a little more to spend. Lots of color options as well.

No way those are aluminum, I can tell just by looking at the chrome finish and the rust makes it even more obvious.
Sellers id ilovetacotaco doesn't help either

Found them on amazon with some reviews, just like the others said avoid.

I've been using these for nearly 2 years now on both street tires and r-comps. Love them and never had an issue thus far:
