Lug Bolts

Hey guys, I'm gonna be gettin some new lug bolts for my '85 GSL. I was wondering if anyone would have any good suggestions on some nice lug bolts that would work for me. I'll be running black mesh Enkei 92s with a polished lip. So if anyone could help me out with any suggestions and where to get any, it would be much appreciated.

If you're looking for a matching color, I'd just powder coat the stock ones. Or you could have them chromed. Unlike the rest of the tuner market that has evolved to lug nuts, the lug bolt isn't exactly "JDM" worthy I guess <.< and therefore its not like we have alot of colors and lock options to be found on ebay or where ever else.

Yeah, I think for now I'll probably just powder coat them myself and then make my own studs that I'll be able to put a lug nut on. Just gotta make sure that the stud is secured in there well.

They make stud conversions, I can't remember where I've seen them but take a look around and I'm sure you can find them, I got a set from a local scrap yard off an FB.

Gorilla makes studs thats screw in using a allen key fitting in the center. Then you can use regular lugs bolts instead of studded lugs. They werefairly inexpensive too.
