Helping to do what exactly?
If you mean posts that were counter to using aluminum lug nuts, then no, they weren't helping.
Please, since this is another thread, they couldn't cite a good reason for choosing aluminum lug nuts other than aethetics. Can you provide a sound engineeering reason for them?
I'm really open minded to new things.

I know this isn't the thread about aluminum lug nuts, but I'll post it here anyway. I bought some used wheels for my Evo9 and they came with some aluminum lug nuts. I weighed them and they were around 1.5 lbs lighter than the factory lug nuts. I know it's at the center of the rotation, but that is still quite a bit. That being said, I probably wouldn't have spent my money on them if the wheels hadn't come with them.
Hey! It's all good! Besides, if a wheel comes loose, sue Rishie!

Mr. Gawd - awful attititude.
They didn't buy them from me, I am not the manufacturer, your comment about me makes no sense and has no grounds.
It's quite interesting how you're willing to invest so much energy into the ANTI-ALUMINUM lugnut movement.
You are creating unnecessary concern for a lot of these people. i have yet to date in 11 years of selling these types of lugnuts encountered and complaints about failure or wheels coming loose. Fortunately I only sell products from reputable manufacturers and brands.
Anyways, tread lightly with your comments please. If you want to open your mouth keep it diplomatic so you don't burn potential bridges you might need to cross one day.

In any case people are always trying to shave weight off their wheel assembly to reduce unsprung weight.
i know guys who spend thousands on forged wheels to save 1-2 lbs per corner in unsprung weight.
Now if someone could save that much just by changing to lighter reputable lugnuts and spending $100.00 then more power to them.
