Hi Guys,

I'm looking into organising a group buy for Muteki wheel/lug nuts.

I'm trying to get prices but it's proving difficult without given the stockists any kind of quantities.

Pics are below

If interested can you please let me know which type - Standard, Semi Extended, Extended and what colour? They have a slimmer diammeter than standard nuts so you no longer have to scrape the crap out your wheel getting them out. Also all nuts are a "lock" nut so to speak, as each will require the key that comes with them to remove them and out them on.

At this stage I want to see what interest we get in the next couple of weeks, and if there is enough to get a good price I'll run the group buy from around 01/07 to 20/07.

To make it worth while we would need around 25-30 orders.

I'm still trying to get a price indication and would post it up as soon as i get one, but indications are that they would be around the $60-$70 mark, with the semi and extended being slightly more expensive, and the Neo Chrome slightly more again.

Cheers

Bobby

what is the outer diameter?

Dimension measurements?

What shape is the Key?

What are they made of?

I'll update the first post as I get details, but can tell you

Made of Chrome Vanadium Steel - not alluminium.

From pics i have been given they seem narrower than the Rays which gives more clearance for putting on/taking them off.

how much thinner??

I need 17mm for my rims.... Be interested if they are indeed 17mm!!! 2 sets, one open one normal... both in black

Hey Anna,

I'm waiting on dimensions from the supplier, but I know in the US alot of people use them on all Japanese Wheels. Rays, Works, Nismo etc.

I'm very very interested ..

if u can give me the length of the standard one compare to extended, that would be good. also, can we get the blue ones in extended version? last, how heavy compare to alluminium ones? are they safe with the impact air tools?

Cheers

Not sure how heavy they are compared to alluminuim ones, but have been told the semi-extended lugs weigh 1.4oz each. I think a Rays one was aroun 0.8oz.

They told me I would get more info today so should hoepfully answer a few questions.

As for air tools, personally i wouldn't use them on any aftermarket wheel nuts. Rays nuts are $200 or so and an air tool would easily destroy them.

From what I've been told, you should always tighten wheel nuts by hand with a torque wrench, regardless of stock or aftermarket.

  • 2 weeks later...
WOuld be interested in black set if similar to above price

Appologies for the long delay all.

Have been advised that the standard Muteki nuts will be $55 delivered to me.

If you're in Sydney, happy to try and organise pick up, otherwise shipping will be at your expense.

Once i have some delivered I'll get shipping quotes to all captial cities, however I can't see them being too much.

The prices for the other styles should be available shortly.

Cheers

Bobby

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
