Some of you may know that i just purchased a set of repro fuch rims. I looked at how much the lug nuts(im putting studs in the rotors) are for these rims are and it turns out that its like 6 bucks a lug nut. thats 120 dollars for all the lugs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) . Why are they so expensive and can i find them anywhere cheaper? I noticed that the lugs have a rounded bottom to mate up with the rim correctly, is that why that are a more expensive?
Ive checked autozone, etc, and all they have are acorn style, tapered edge, which i don't think will work. I don't mind buying these lug nuts, but if theres a cheaper alternative, im game for that! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
