they will be less than 285... more like 255.00 which is basically our cost... we are producing them because we love them

and they are great for track enthusiasts...

if you feel they are too much, they may be for your needs..... but we are hardcore about our track work.

cheers

thanks for the compliments.

i can also do them in different materials, but i probably wont.

these are harder then the "typical" Ti lugnuts..

they are done at our cost to let people that are interested have a piece of CBRD pride and attention to detail....

They will be shipping in 2 weeks....

you will also get the normal CBRD stickers and such with them.

thanks for the interest guys!!!

Yea people who are saying this is pricey needs to check out other TI lugs, $400~500.

Any Idea what the exact weight savings is over stock?

Unsprung weight is the best weight to knock off.

No, it isn't. Not when I have $4000 worth of wheel and tire to hold onto my car pulling over 1.1g's on a race course.

Not to mention I've tried EVERY other lug minus project kics. Rays lugs a a WEAK aluminum that bends when you torque them...I dunno of anyone who still have their rays lugs looking pretty after the first time they torque them. The same goes for works lugs.

Muteki and all those other ones are heavy *** steel.

GT Design is $530 shipped, and they are a weaker Ti than this.

And here two more members know what is up as well.

Anyone else care to tell me how much money I "wasted"? You get what you pay for boys...

For those who asked, I'll try and weigh out one of the lugs and have a stocker to compare it to.

they do seem expensive but im sure they are worth the price. mitch is right, my rays lugs looked like crap after just a few weeks. the weight savings is a tough arguement but they are badass, fucntional lugs.
