I prefer my lugnuts to be "taken off and on again so much they don't really have a color anymore because the black coating is worn off from swapping tires at the track" colored.

Well, there you have it. Emilio is one of the winningest drivers on here, and he says to run purple lug nuts.

I believe that would be /thread.

I'm pretty sure you can find them available for sale somewhere. Mount the ****** sticking outwards on your rims, it will be like an old school gladiator chariot with the spikes on the wheels.. in your case ****** though.

So I got the next best thing....

Pink!

So do as you are told, man up and get purple lugs...

Or

Wuss out like I did, and get pink.

Maybe one day I will be a manly man like Emilio and be able to run the coveted purple lugs!
