Drop Engineering Lug Nuts

So I wanted to find some red anodized lug nuts to make my black winter rims pop. I was looking for like 2 weeks, and I finally found some for a good price! Drop Engineering has closed ended lug nuts that are perfect for making my wheels look a little better, and they're not too pricey either. I wanted to let you guys know, because I ran into a lot of lug nuts that are $140+ when I got my set of red ones for only $106. They also make them in blue, black, and purple! Just giving you all a heads up before you spend too much!

Here's the link. It's to their homepage, because all the lugs are right on there, but i bought mine from No limit motorsports. As for blox, idk I had a friend that said they weren't that great of quality, because like 2 of them bent when the tire shop put his wheels back on..i've never used them though. Personally, i really like the colors that Drop has, they're super bright! sometimes the other colors i've seen are just kinda dull

and yeah, they have open ended lugs too, they're all on the page the link goes to.

yeah...i dont really understand how you can bend a lug nut maybe they put them on with an impact which you should never do with lugs like these. i have herd that since they are aluminum they wear over time if you remove them alot. but at 70$ a pop, ill buy more if the threads end up stripping. i dont really remove my tires often though so thats a plus.

Well, he took it to a shop that he specifically told not to use the impact, but who knows what they did... he got it back and 2 were bent. He went back to the shop and the manager had the mechanic who changed his tires come out to talk to him personally and the guy just wouldn't take any blame for any of it. Who knows what he did exactly. I hate bad shops.
