Alan: I can't speak for Terrance but I don't think they are available in anything but natural Ti.

But, I do think they look good on the CF wheels. I only have them on the front now but I'll be putting the rears on, Real Soon Now.

They come in two sizes and T, Jaime, or someone mentioned that the longer versions are for aftermarket wheels so T was kind enough to hook me up with another set of shorties for the rear.

Currently we only do the raw titanium. The cost associated with doing small batch anodizing is a bit high, and the full set of these is $430 already.

I think a few guys from this last batch will be pursuing it on their own.

I should have an all short set available for your CFTP wheels. Send me your email address and I can get you setup.

Deez nuts work on everything!

We FINALLY got a little respite from the heat so I took the opportunity to install the remaining Ti nuts on the rear. It also made it possible for me to make good on the promise I made to Terrance with photos.

BTW, the Reverse Logic Lug Guide Tools worked perfectly! What an outstanding idea. The wheels slid on like they were greased.

OK T, here are the photos...

Yep, just like mine, the lugs are too long.

I dont see a fix anytime soon.

The reverse logic guide tools are very cool. I ordered a set, but let it be known, they will not work with Signature Wheels. The tolerances are very tight for the Signature Wheel and the holes don’t have the play built in to clear the lug guide.

They may be a wee bit long, Tom, but I like the looks.

The lug should be flush with the stud. The lugs being too long look like it was not well thought out.

That's a drag, Jared. Without them, you almost need two people to push those big a$$ wheels on without whacking the caliper.

You could try to chuck it up in a drill press and file/sand it down to a smaller diameter. You shouldn't have to remove much material to get down to the required clearance.

The lug should be flush with the stud. The lugs being too long look like it was not well thought out.

Chasing the stud length is difficult. They will vary by GT350R, GT350, GT500, CFTP GT500, MSI Stud, ARP Stud, square rotatable offset with a spacer, and the list goes on.

The main goal is making sure the lug nut has equal protrusion at all four corners, sits flush with the wheel face, and versatility to work with any stud or wheel combination on the market. That is where the thought process ahead of time makes these outstanding. One set of lug nuts to cover any situation.

Aesthetic needs will vary for sure, you just have to personally decide what you are after.
