They're just regular lug nuts. The colored ones don't lock though. What are they? Well, they basically hold stuff together in the wheel area of your car.

Either way, if you win they are still cheaper then they would be if you were to buy them

Did you guys read the description?

[hr]In addition they're 30% lighter in weight[hr]
oooo...30% lighter = my civic is gonna be ever so fast!

I just hope that they are as strong and durable as stock lugs.

Let's get real with the raffle now.

I'd buy one if the price comes down to $1

Those are all good ideas, but not enough people buy raffle tickets to afford a cf hood or strut bar and stuff. I mean, maybe more people would if that was the raffle, but right now no one buys them ( im not saying I do).

Why does everyone have to complain, I dont get it. Why dont you get some respect for "D", He doesnt have to have any Raffles at all. If you dont like this raffle, keep it to your self....Just dont buy tickets and wait for the next raffle....Everything has to always be a problem, if you dont like it.

AMEN!! He is trying to keep this site going and you are all complaining. Those aren't just regular lug nuts, they are splinedrive, and they aren't cheap either.

Spline Drive lugs:

The precision fit and efficient drive angle of the splines provide greater torquing power where you need it during installation and removal. In fact there is 59% more positive engagement over socket style lug nuts, even with no stud intrusion into drive tool area. Stud intrusion dramatically reduces socket style tool engagement.

Compared to socket style lug nuts our lug nuts have 26% more seating surface. DacrometTM plating on the cone seating surface enhances torque tension characteristics. Spline Drive Lug Nuts are the safest tuner lug nuts on the market.



Means they're safer with wheels...plus you get 2 raffle tickets for the price of 1 lug nut. I'd say it's a pretty good deal...

Besides, what everyone else said, the raffles are for all of our benefit...if you don't like em, don't enter the raffle! If the raffle was for a spoiler, it DEFINITELY serves no purpose other than looks. These are for looks AND safety. Think about it! Sheesh...

If I had the cash right now to enter the raffle, I would...after all, I'd feel safer if I knew that I had these, and I didn't have to worry about my nuts flying off...

wait, let me rephrase that [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
