To each his own but the fact that they stick out so far just doesn't look right to me. Is there any benefit to them poking out so much or is it just more for show?

At first glance it reminded me of the spikes on those Gladiator Chariots you see in the movies...

for me i'm just looking for aesthetics but for purpose it makes removing wheels a bit more easier especially if you track your car. that's the other thing is you wouldn't think people like studs that much longer but from an aesthetics side it's actually a bit more pleasing depending on wheel choice. i currently have the BMS titanium lugs which are nice but just getting some opinions on these

I would say no. I think that they will distract from your wheels. The titanium color will also clash with the bronze of your wheels.

Same opinion here, lugs stick out too far.

Your current lugs look awesome, I would keep them.

The latest fad in makin' wheels look different. I hate 'em cos they look stoopid. I just want to get the grinder out and knock the excess thread off.

Sorry Bud. I like your current lugs (which I thought were Tikore, not BMS)
