What tuner lug nuts,do you guys use? Ex: lightweight alumn.(zenki) or heat treated ? Looking to purchase some new ones but just looking for opinions.

Kyokugen!
I have a set for sale, too. Only because my Volks came with their own lugs.

i personally wouldnt use alumin. heard so many horror stories about them, but ive also heard of people having no problems at all, i guess it depends on the person. im running gorilla lug nuts and i love them if that helps

They look just like the Gorilla ones I have, though mine are chrome. I've had them for about 4 years now and had no problems with them, though they haven't seen any track duty, so I have no idea how they would hold up to that.
