Greddy or TiTek 60mm lug nuts

Any body or vendors selling GREDDY or TiTek 60mm lugnuts in red?

For what wheels? I have the TiTeks on my Integra with 5Zigen wheels and have had zero issues. Cant say the same for the factory Rays on the sport package. Had major (@&^$ing issues even after they confidently said that they "should" work since they tested them on factory GTR wheels. Wasn't happy in the slightest.

And I think I may have a complete set laying around somewhere of the TiTeks in blue. Long skinny speed ones. When you torque to spec and this happens and stays in the lug hole smashed in there, yeah, no (&&$#@ing BUENO. I was irate, luckily though we only have to rap on the back side of the wheel on lift with a huge rubber mallet. But it could have amounted to grinding the back of the stud out and pushing it through the lug whole with a punch. Its seat angle didn't match with the factory rays and smashed into the rotor and kinda squished everywhere. I was at my comfort limit beating on the back of the wheel too.

The factory Rays on the Sport and the factory Nismo wheels require the "washer" style lugs. If the tapered seat lugs are used there's always going to be issues. This was the same reason there was a TSB from Nissan on the locking lugs that dealers were putting on (tapered vs. washer style).

Yeah I know that, but I called and spoke with their tech and he stated that they fit on the Rays for the GTR's with the same shoulder design and it should work on ours. Needless to say he was wrong. Our Rays are tapered down in the hole and also have the shoulder.

Should work for ya then. I used some anti seize though to make sure they didnt corrode onto the threads and snap when removed.
