Tuner Lugs?

Can anybody recommend some brands of lugs, I plan on using powered by max wheel spacers sometime soon, when they become available, but I'd like to get a set of lugs to go with them, I saw a set of Vision Motorsport tuner lugs on ebay, wondering if those are anygood. Feedback appreciated.

I like the Gorilla lug nuts, steel, available in a variety of colors, slim design to fit aftermarket wheels and are keyed. Plus cost is only about $30 from summitracing.

I used to use Muteki's. I think I still have a set or 2 lying around. Not bad at all. I have Kics R40's on my car now. So far my favorite set.

I'm not impressed with these POS gorilla lugs, the chromed set I have rusted in a summer of use.I have to constantly keep cleaning surface rust off these every couple of months.

Maybe is poor chrome job, my black and blue sets are still rust free. However the black set was caught out in a wintry mix, and I had to drive alittle through some salt, the next day I washed the whole car and still no rust. I will say the blue which is anodized is not the best quality it wears off easy, but I m still happy with them, do not need to worry like the aluminum lug nuts

I had a set of the chromed Gorilla splined lugs on my Fikse wheels for over 5 years and they held up very well. Zero rust.

If the blox are aluminum the anodize will likely fade.
