100% custom open ended locking lug nuts :D

So i was thinking. Hey i dont have locking lugs for my car and i dont wanna make up one morning and boom my wheels gone...so i found some muteki lugs and took them to my dads work and cut the ends off..since i have extended studs...lol heres the finished product.





i was to lazy to go buy some fancy ones since my wheels are always moving no one can see them, when i hit up meets then i can put on them fancy ones...maybe LOL

ANYWAYS! enjoy

since he has extended studs he needs open ended lug nuts. they wouldn't be able to thread all the way on if they were closed, they would hit the end of the stud first.

X2 and they're not at structurally sound as before. I would have just gone with lugs like that and not run the risk of one cracking and the end getting rusty, just my 2 cents.

Muteki makes the exact product you created, they sell on eBay for about $35 shipped

And his extended studs wont rust if they are ARP's they are coated.
