Question, what do I set the torque settings to when I install the lugs? Also, on my Integra my colored anodized lugs came with a special socket that had some type of thin rubber compound to prevent scratching the lugs. Anyone have any ideas what I can use to prevent scratching my new lugs?

And upon more searching, not an ideal solution, but check out post 18.

After searching it seems like people said I can use painters tape, electrical tape and even a plastic bag?!

Isn't painter's tape a paper based product? I'd feel more confident with 1 or 2 rounds of electrical tape - not too soft and shouldn't get destroyed in the process therefore easy to peel off afterwards.

Sorry, couldn't resist... they are, granted very beautiful, but at the day, just wheel lugs, no absolute perfection is necessary or possible long term in my opinion. Just make sure torque is set up right, handle with care and enjoy the new look. |

Yeah don't worry about scratching them & don't use any protection over them while torquing them, it might not give u the exact reading therefore make it dangerous.
Safety first, no one will pay attention to the scratched up lugs that much. |

Edit: ask the peeps who sold you the lugs what to use to keep them from getting scratched during the install. Last edited by Teddylongtooth; 10-21-2015 at 11:02 PM.. Reason: Don't call me teddy! Call me Mr. Longtooth! |

Very glad I went with the Matte Antique Bronze finish than the Brushed finish as the brush is more brighter.
Here's Brush:
