Gorilla Automotive 21133BL Blue 5 Lug Kit (12mm x 1.50 Thread Size) - Pack of 20, Small Diameter Review

Great color and fit. However, some had minor scratches and scuffs even before I opened the box, proving the workmanship isn't very good. in all. I read the reviews about the poor finish before ordering, but I still managed to remove some of the finish despite being much more careful. It's hard to imagine the finish taking longer than a few weeks or months if you have them on DD.

These nuts break off so easily, even if you just use a wrench to check the fit, they just scratch the paint. I used to have Muteki cleats and the finish is not like that. You don't have to do anything special to install and tighten them on the wheels to prevent paint chipping. The ring nuts are good and fit perfectly, but not recommended in this version as it is poorly finished.

Needed replacement cleats with smaller walls for aftermarket wheels. (OEM cleats did not work) This cleat set served its original purpose of providing a thinner wall for non-OE wheels. A wrench is required to assemble all grommets. Some additional security benefits are provided. The surface of the studs will scratch/splinter exposing the bare metal of the tips. The key is steel. The set arrived in a plastic bag. In addition, each eyelet is individually packed in its own bag. Good price…

I bought these to replace the black wheels on my WRX '06. They matched the OE torque specs well. Those are strong eyelets. Update: The only downside to these cleats is the cheap paint job. I change wheels every winter and the first time I removed these lugs 20% of the paint was lost on all lugs. You will need to apply a Teflon coating to the tabs and inside of the key to preserve the color. What's the use of paint if it peels off? And we pay for this color at the expense of the cost.

These are good eye nuts - they look stronger than standard nuts. However, I put them on my track bikes and after 1 ride the paint came off. This may have been caused by heat build up but I still run street tires so the paint should have held up better. This is disappointing compared to the McGard nuts on my everyday drive wheels. McGards have been cycled on and off many times and the tire guys have used an impact wrench on them - they still look new. If you put them on your car every day, order

My 2007 Subaru Forester Sports XT is WRB. World Rally Blue and XXR wheels have blue chrome accents. The chrome nuts looked ok but I wanted to try the blue ones. My search for blue nuts found them. Pros: + Reasonable price at $32.45 for a set of 20 and shipping was free when I bought my set. + Beautiful blue color. Individually packed in plastic bags to avoid damage. Cons: - These nuts are painted, not blue chrome plated. - A few chipped nuts have seeped the paint into the base metal. Not bad…
