are those open ended aftermarket lug nuts on those OEM V1's?
suggest doing some research into why NOT to doing this...
appreciate the concern. they are aftermarket, open-ended lug nuts with the proper honda "cupped" base/seat.

where did you find those? i wanted black lugs with the radiused lug nut seat but could not find them anywhere other than $5 each at honda for CR/NSX lugs

i ended up using plastidip on them, but if there is a place selling aftermarket style with the proper seat i'd love to know.

i have never seen spacers thinner than 15mm with built in studs. if you are doing 10mm you are going to need to use extended studs.

edit: i stand corrected, but i would not feel safe, those are super thin.

i've been wanting to get some open ended aftermarket lugs for my ap2v1's but i do know the risk and definitely not worth it. i believe what etruscan might be running are these. maybe he can chime in or anyone that has experience with them.

looks like they can be had on clubrsx for a lil cheaper and with free shipping

Thanks for the link!!!A bit expensive for a pair of 10mm spacers..but i think theyre legit..if its comming from Evasive they should be reliable
