I have the same black lug nuts. I started to run them but did not have the longer studs. I felt uncomfortable running aluminum lugs with only half the thread engagement. I'll be getting long studs soon enough. What length are yours?

The studs I ordered were ARP-100-7704 (( 3.470 in )).


ps - the aluminun nuts have me worried also.

I'm using the same black lug nutz in the first picture. It's a small thing, but I like the cross hatch on the end. It's trick looking and makes starting them by hand easier when your in a hurry.

I am sure if you build it they will come or at least I will. I think you should start with the red vette first.

I saw this commercial on TV last night. Looks like a great solution for a bike rack.

I just ordered a set for my 2010 Camaro after seeing them on the trail a couple weeks ago.

ps we did consider these for the 70 but thought it was the easy way out.
