Default Looking for Purple or Neo Chrome Lug Nuts *with matching LOCKS*

Hi all,

Been searching all over for some purple lug nuts, but having trouble finding a set that has matching wheel locks too. Only ones I've found are cheapie Ebay ones (Godspeed) or Muteki SR35s, which are decent, but I want a DEEP purple, like LAKER purple, not a light purple, lavender, or magenta. I'm willing to go Neo Chrome, but really would like some purple ones.

I want them to be:

--deep purple
--closed end
--have matching locks

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Depends on the material and how they are colored. If it is anodized aluminum like the Rays, then yes, they will eventually fade.

thanks, i think the only lugs that really fade are anodized ones. painted or powdercoated finishes are more durable & resistant to fading. the deep purple color i want will prob only be on painted lugs. most of the anodized purples are really light & not what i want.

appreciate all the replies & suggestions. please keep em coming. if i don't find anything, i guess i'll have to just custom powdercoat or paint a set. i really don't want to spend a couple hundred just on lugnuts tho.

Yeah the only reason I found them was because I was looking for lugnuts a while back and came across kics in the process and keyed that in specifically. Most are made by drag, and some other small indepenent companies but in all honesty I have Muteki's and although they are cheap @ $75 the threads have made it through two sets of wheels, 4 years of use and have not faded from the sun just yet..

Then again, the titanium neo look coating is light and that could be why but you never know.
