      Lug nuts...

      Looking for some high quality hardened lug nuts for my build. I'm tried of going through all these soft Amazon specials and having them get stuck in my impact. In doing some simple searches, I see companies like Gorilla, VMS, and McGard get brought up a lot, but I'm not sure how current those recommendations are.

      Looking for 12mmx1.5 open-end lug nuts keep my Forgeline GA3R wheels in place. I don't have a budget with this particular part. Spent so much on the car already that it doesn't seem right to cheap out here, so I'm always willing to pay good money for a good part. Thoughts?

      Edit: Spoke with Forgeline just to confirm, they use a standard conical seat with a 60-degree taper. So any acorn 12mmx1.5 open-end lug nut will work.

      I have used these from Gorilla on so many cars. The set on my car have been on and off probably 200 times. The little knurled shank is awesome and they are available with an open end.
