D-1 is a Japanese firm that makes components in Japan and outsources material to Taiwan for having material machined at a lower labor cost.... The material that these nuts are made of is AL7525 and others made of the same alloy, are for sale on ebay at much lower prices.... I read a positive revue of the latches on a British forum and they said that they worked very well . I am old enough to remember when Japanese motorcycles were considered junk and as old as I am I cant remember seeing or having heard of lug nuts of any kind failing and I spent many years selling and installing tires and doing automotive work. I can remember seeing a few broken wheel studs though and wheels damaged beyond use..... I am strongly considering buying some nuts like these and if they prove to be of good quality I'll certainly let everyone hear about it.
