Lol@the frustration. You can lead a horse to water...

I had muteki's but two broke and I never second guessed it. I might have bought some bootleg ones, I forgot where I got them from. Now Im running the Project kics r40's open ended and havent had problems since.

I have Rays lug nuts and have had no issue with them.

Swap tires 6+ times a year.

I decided to give Muteki lug nuts a try. I ordered a set of the SR35 Closed End Neo Chrome lug nuts from Import Parts Pro. Interested to see how they look on my black wheels, I've been running black lug nuts on them as I have never been sure how they would look with colored or Neo Chrome lugs. I was looking at Password JDM lug nuts from Concept Z Performance but couldn't find anyone running them on a Z so I went with the more popular Muteki's.

Read through this whole thread and did a search via google for the site. Asking as it has been a few years for this thread and things might have changed.

I have a 2013 NISMO with stock Rays rims. I am looking for a gloss black lug. Only time the rims come off is for tire/rubber change.

After reading all this I am thinking of getting a second set of OEM lugs and PC them black.

Do I have any other options for stock 2013 rays rims?

I had an older porsche, wanted gloss black lugs, couldnt find them...finally found a gloss black vinyl overlay(cover) that worked quite well...found them on ebay somewhere.

Evasive will but why not just go direct? Don't think there's any deals to be had.

Same here just read this whole thread....so just to get this right or confirm.....the Z1 lugs are the only aftermarket lug nuts that will fit the stock Sport or Nismo rims?
