Lug nuts - Can someone verify pitch on Lugs?
 
Hi guys. I am looking for some new lugs to fit with my Enkei shoguns. I want as many threads as possible. These appear to be what i am looking for with a shallow front. Could someone verify the pitch on these is correct for an SVX lug?

Thanks!

Wrong pitch. The ad you have linked is 12MM x 1.5 thread. The SVX has 12MM 1.25 thread pitch.

The price is way too high also. IMO

I have these on the way, they were modestly priced, and probably as thin as I will find. Hopefully I will get enough bite on there to be happy at 150mph.

Those "Allen Key" style tuner nuts are the worst thing every created. The ones you have with the Torx style tool aren't as bad, but can still be a nightmare. Especially with the threaded portion left wide open. Anything that gets in there starts them corroding to the studs, then when you try to remove them it takes way to much force, and the internal pressure from the tool splits the nut. Life gets complicated after that. I've had many missadventures from those things at work.

Spline drive nuts are hugely better.

No winter and no rust here. We shall see.
