Nice, those would be super difficult to get off without the right socket. Probably wouldn't need locks with those.
That's bad since some crooks might have to take the whole car when all they wanted was the lug nuts.

Scott,
I believe you need a new scale. My GT Premium lug nut removed for the locking ones are 2.44 oz. EACH or 69.3 Grams on a very accurate light wt. scale. I doubt very much your stock ones are only .15 oz. each NOR 0.05oz. for the titanium ones.

Lug nuts with different or unique sockets are simply a light theft deterrent, as almost every lug nut is super easy to get off with a slightly undersized 12-point 1/2" drive socket, a 6" long extension, and a 2-pound hammer.
Sure its doable but far from being quick or super easy especially if they're torqued to 150ftlbs like GT's

Will these lug nuts clear the stock GT350 wheels or rather will they clear the MRR M350 wheels? I know the stock ones on my GT won't fit since they are too big.

I hope you're like a 140-150lb cross country runner with 0% body fat or something. Guys who chase ounces on their cars and up being 270+lb dudes who struggle getting in and out of the seat kind of eliminate the whole point of weight reduction.

Don't get what? At these power and torque levels, ounces are statistical noise in terms of the affect on power delivery. They sure look cool though.

Coming from someone who suffered through 4 semesters of physics. :)

Best,
Shit 4 whole semesters?! You're basically a top tier scientist!
