$21.95 for a 4 pack. So, still $109.75 for 20 of'em.

Think I'll pass. But cool though. Maybe if I fall face first into a pile of 5 $20 dollar bills I'll get them...

Those are the nuts I was referring to.....

Has anyone noticed the price of regular old lug-nuts at the local parts store? Damn.... it seems that I pay at least $2 ea for the regular ole generic nuts, $5.50 a nut doesn't sound so bad when you look at it that way.

You paid too much!

Dave, these are the ones I bought from eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130304058088

$2.49 (for 5) X quantity 4 = $9.96. That's .498 cents per acorn nut. Tack on $4.95 shipping (.2475 cents per lug) for a total cost of $0.7455 per lug.

If you get chrome acorn nuts, I'd recommend McGuard brand. They have a lifetime warranty against rusting/flaking chrome. There really is a difference between those and the cheap chinese crap you find online.

I think I'm gonna order some of these extra long, Mad Max wheel studs so I can cut the tires down on that Cruzer as she laps me.

Thanks to this thread, I finally got around to getting longer studs for the track car. 3" Moroso studs all around...thanks!

LMan68 · « **Reply #47 on:** January, 14, 2010, 08:34:14 PM »

*sigh* I suck at the cellphone pics...but I will attempt.

silverblueBP · « **Reply #48 on:** January, 15, 2010, 10:30:29 AM »

Well, here are pics of the new studs and acorn nuts I'll be installing before the next track event. Replacing them at all 4 wheels, I've had the old ones on there since 2004.

LMan68 · « **Reply #49 on:** January, 17, 2010, 01:25:09 PM »

Question while I am looking at the longer studs... does anyone know what rotors I have? I got the rotors/spindles as a piece years ago, spindles are '70 Mustang disc-brake, but no indication what the rotors are. They are 11 3/16 diameter, ventilated, and 7/8" thick. Only marking is a stamp "BPC 533"

Any ideas?
