...i'm looking for specifically Muteki lug nuts 12x1.5, closed end, chrome and surprisingly i have a hard time finding it. While i see them on RacingLab.com, the sales guy told me they are out of stock. The closest i can find is this "silver" set from eBay but i really want chrome!

I bought my black open ended ones direct from the importer (Mankin Ind.). Try giving them a call.

i've had those lug nuts before.. i wouldn't rec. them the key ended up getting stripped, and that was not too bad since i just bought another key. But after that seemed like too much of a hassle.

Ended up buying these, worked great and haven't had any problems with them.

:shock:

Were you using an air tool or hand wrench?

I have used this kind of lug nuts for years and never an issue - only tightened by hand and removed by air gun at light setting. 84 ft lbs is the max.

Also - RSpeed carries this style of lug nun in chrome and black. Might want to give them a hollah: www.rspeed.net

...for future reference: i end up being lucky and found one set from ebay store TuneShop. looks like it was the last set, as they are out of this stock now:

To CrimsonMX5's point, i can see how one may be able to strip the key as the groves in the key is not that deep...
