NEW Titanium Lugs!!!

fuct · 04-16-2010, 10:33 AM

the washer could be heated during manufacturing and slid over a ridge in the bolt. or a manderal press expands the threads from the inside of the un formed bolt, traping the washer in a cavity. i will bring one up to work and have the shop cut it in half to find out.

i am, but sales never sleeps[/QUOTE]

I was actually referring to a black tip with a burnt Ti edge, but it doesn't sound like you have a good method of applying black.

Also I preffered the lugs with the capped head vs. open end. I know open is probably lighter but I like the finished off look. When you are talking Ti i doubt the difference is much anyway. Not a deal breaker though.

yeah unfortunately that would be pretty hard to do though it would look sick.

and sorry guys gonna be honest here this has been put on the backburner for at least a week, just busy with other stuff, namely Alliance BBKs

OK .. just do not forget the project all together. I figured it would take some work, as no other vendors have jumped on this opportunity yet.

puckshaw · 04-19-2010, 01:20 PM

I'd be down for a set of black that fit the sport rims. I could really care less if they're titanium though. Just want something affordable and good quality. Oh and I like the spline lugs.

Mike@Blackline · 04-19-2010, 01:28 PM

yeah most likely an aluminum option would be available too for cost reasons

Aluminum is fine by me. Black is preferred however.
