They look pretty nice. You should find out what kind of finish is on them if possible. I have a set of blue Muteki lug nuts that the finish isn't all that great on. It scratches off really easy, especially when you put the spline drive over it. I am getting some McGard's with my new wheels that are a lot nicer. They have a bearing on the bottom of them to prevent stud damage when putting them on or taking them off. Only the cap is blue and it looks to be powder coated. Here is a link to the products page at McGard: http://www.mcgard.com/automotive/new_prod.asp Here is a pic of the lug nuts I am getting (mine will be the one on the left, of course ): They are spline drive lug nuts. Here is a pic of the tool it comes with:

Triton, where are you getting them from? How much?I was thinking about the color scratching off also, but I was thinking that the only part of the lug that the "key" touches is the inside (therefore, the only part that might get scratched is the unseen inner part).

They are $50. Very much worth the extra cost. It is true that the inside is more prone to scratching, but when you slide the key over the lug nut, you may bump the top causing a scratch.In response to silverawd26...no way in h e double hockey sticks that anything U of M would come in contact with my car! I can barely even let a U of M fan in my car! (Just Kidding )

After seeing the blue on the McGard lug nuts, it is actually lighter than the picture I posted. I like the blue on my Muteki's better so today I switched back to them. With my new wheels, you can't hardly see anything but the top of the lug nut now. All the marks on them are on the side.

$55 sets me up with lug nuts shown at the top of this topic with about $25 for the other set shown here. But I'm going with the $55 ones cause they are chrome plated and will go well with my rims.
