Hi guys!

Looking for 20 new Lug Nuts for my SSI on my 69 Supreme.

Found some offers for all 20... that go from $115 by FUSICK to $15 on eBay...

-Fusickhttp://www.fusickautomotiveproducts....p?number=WN713
-eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/20-LUG-NUTS-...495766&vxp=mtr

What do you think?
Any tips or advice?

Thanks!

The correct factory-style lug nuts have stainless steel caps over steel nuts to prevent rust. The Chinesium ebay nuts are likely chrome and will start rusting before you even get them on the car.

The ones from Fusicks are correct for the SS1's. They are larger 13/16 or maybe they are 7/8 diameter Ill have to check one of my old ones, and i believe they are not stainless capped. There obviously different than the ones on ebay, which i have a set of and there decent but not correct. I think the ones from Fusicks are solid stainless. When I get my SS1's Ill get the onse form Fusicks. Im thinking i saw these at The Parts Place too, and they were over $200.

Thanks a lot guys!!
It's for this kind of answers that I really appreciate this forum and its members!!!

I'll go with Fusick!

Another question, but still related to wheels, which black should I paint my SSI (parts where lug nuts holes are)... Glossy black or matt black?

THANKS!

Fusick nuts are solid stainless. They are nice but imported. I run those on my Buicks, they will last forever if you NEVER put an air gun on them and are careful. I like to put a cheap plastic bag or baggie on them when tightening. It's as good a price as you will find for that quality nut, I think.
