Powdercoated lugs?
Hello all. I'm getting prepared for my new wheels and tires. I'm getting some silver 15 x 7 Kosei K1 Racing's for the Miata. Uncertain on tires yet, Hankook or Yokohama. Well, I was thinking of getting blue hardware to go with the brand stamping on the wheels. Does anyone know any online stores that would offer something like this, but powdercoated? Either that or recommend something that won't get torn up by lug wrenches. Thanks.

Re: Powdercoated lugs?
If you're going to get powdercoated lugs, you'll have to get either undersized lugs, or oversized sockets (or lug keys). Powdercoating adds a significant amount of coating versus paint, etc. I'd recommend getting them painted, and getting some extra paint to keep so you can do touchups or repaint as necessary.
