Gorilla Lug Nuts

[Blix666]

the black gorilla lugs that were purchased for the DI RS...are they anodized black or painted?...price just seems too cheap for anodized lugs.

[I_Rally]

From what I can tell from my set, they are painted. Which is just as well, because I doubt that anodization would hold up as well.

from talking with paul today... I can tell hes a great guy..but his prices are so low! I love it... makes rallying more enjoyable.. and it helps hes british!

[Team Illuminata]

I did a bit of research in Gorilla's catalogue and it describes them as "Black Chrome" http://www.natmetal.com/chrome.htm which seems better than paint. When I look at them now that makes more sense.

Yeah, these lugnuts rock!

[UP2MTNS]

i'm missing a lugnut, I may have to pick up a set. So these are strong enough for racing/rally use? Aaron, this is what you're using on the rally car?

[Blix666]

thanx again to T.I.M. awesome customer service and super-fast shipping.

[RoadRunner]

Are these longer than OEM lugnuts?

[subyspawn]

Jon, they should be plenty strong for rally.

btw, I just picked up a set for the RLLYSTi (open ended):

We used Gorilla lugs on last years Formula SAE car. They worked great!

[williaty]

I got them because they were cheap, used a 19mm socket, and my stockers were worn out. The added bonus is that they're long enough you can spin them all the way down to seat on the wheel without having trouble getting your fingers on them.

I do have my doubts on the longevity of the black treatment as it chipped in a few places on the first time I torqued them down. But for a buck twenty? Damn good deal!

[WRXCMM]

Payment sent! I've been meaning to buy some of these for a while. :)

[409industries]

Yeah they are nice. I used them to mount the rally wheels on the rally car and they go on and torque down perfectly. I like how they are a bit longer than OEM lugs so you can get them started easier with gloves on, etc.

[Team Illuminata]

They'll look beautiful on that.

[409industries]

They'll look beautiful on that.

Yes i agree. Get rid of those OEM chrome lugs, and get some black ones up against that bronze / gold... :headbang:

[dppaladino]

my gorilla lugs are rusted to ****. they looked pretty for a while though.
