    I've had 3 diff viffers in the past years and always wanted to have black lugs. I finally got around to it. Finding the ball seat black lugs with the same size OEM head was not easy. I can find the taper seats all day long but not easy to find the balls seats locally. I always hated the chrome lug nuts on black wheels

    Because anything painted on top of chrome is prone to pitting. And if you change tires as much as I do it will look like shit in no time. I got 16 lugs for $22 not worth trying to paint OEM ones.
