Just installed them this afternoon. Theres an install thread below this one.
They dont get nearly hot enough to melt anything, the summer sun will warm the seats much much hotter than these ever would especially if they're black or dark blue.

Also ordered forged aluminum lug nut kit, saves a couple lbs of weight off the corners and they look pretty cool, great quality and fast shipping.

Yes they will bolt on, but they do not have the ball seats on them. Our OEM honda wheels have ball seats that only ball/radius seat lugs will seat right on. The tuner/conical lugs such as those do not have that seat, and will not seal onto the wheel right. That can cause the lugs to come loose very easily when driving and cause serious damage, and maybe cause a big accident.
I know some people have done it before and nothing has happened, but its still not recommended and can be very dangerous. Thats the main reason I powdercoated the faces of my OEM lugs, and also why you dont see colorful lugs on stock wheels.

How is it not safe?
Same conical seat, same threads? They're basically a copy in forged aluminum.

Be careful with what color u get, usually only black is piwdercoated and other colors will peel and scrape in the shipping imagine what it will do to them putting them on. Did you order? If so please keep us updated it with pictures
