ARE LIGHTER LUG NUTS BETTER?

WE’VE ALL SEEN THE COOL LUG NUTS FROM A LOT OF COMPANIES OFFERING LIGHTER NUTS (LOL) FOR YOUR WHEELS ESPECIALLY FOR US TRACK DAY PERSONS, BUT ARE THEY REALLY WORTH THE PRICE TAG. IT DEPENDS, IF YOU’RE IN TO MAKE YOUR CAR LOOK GOOD OR IN NEED FOR LONGER WHEEL STUDS THEN GO FOR IT, OTHER THAN THAT I WOULDN’T GO FOR THE AFTERMARKET LUG NUTS!

REASONS:

1. WASTE OF MONEY

2. WON’T MAKE A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN WEIGHT

3. MIGHT STRIP THE THREADING/SCRATCH AFTER CONSTANT REMOVAL

4. DEPENDING ON THE METAL THE CONSTANT HEAT AND EXPANSION (USUALLY ON TRACK USAGE) CAN CAUSE YOU TO LOSE A WHEEL 😦

5. YOU CAN FIND SOMETHING BETTER TO SPEND $90-120 ON!
