Default Group Buy on AXAS lug nuts

http://www.groupbuycenter.com/buy.asp?row_id=7334





I got these in the mail yesterday and they are 1/2 the weight of the stock lugs. They are also longer than your usual lug nut and have an open end incase you use extended wheel studs.

I got 20 lugs for $65.

They're designed for extended wheelstuds and wheels without a cap covering the lugnuts. Yes, they would stick out further than stock lugnuts.

With lugnuts from Kyokugen(sp?), Spoon, AXAS, and others, I think it's about time for a definitive comparison between all of the available lugnuts.

So far, I've got...

Code:
          stock lugnuts = 31.65 g
          Spoon lugnuts = 21.13 g
       Kyokugen lugnuts = 25 g
AXAS (formerly Daiyama) = 25 g
   other racing lugnuts = 19.5 g
Does anybody have anything else to add!?
