+ 1 on that. Actually, every lug nut on my wheels are lock lugs. I bought multiple sets so there are different keys to get them off.

Looks great, but I like the grey Torque Thrusts too.

they look GREAT!!!

I think they look really good too.

I have a guy doing a set in Black Chrome and we are trying a Black Chrome Center Torque Thrust too.

I like em but I went with the ARE Torque Thrust M's custom painted by Nickeys. Just waiting on a tire shipment and the wheels will be in the car!

There are a few places that chrome the wheels too. You send them your wheels, they chrome them, send them back. Or they send you wheels, you pay core charge. When you get your wheels, you send your factory's back.

Usually like $800 or so.

OP, they look fantastic!

I actually did that with my 18x8 GTO rims; sent them to OEM Wheels or something like that in Orange County, CA. Shipping was $$ but worth it when I got the wheels on my black GTO!

LOVE IT!! have my name down for the replica 22's in chrome.. RAWR!! :-)

i wanted to do this as well but was afraid they would be to much also, i like my cars plain and the polished look good on my car but sometimes i feel like they look like dirty chrome. they look very nice on your car

Normally I am not a big fan of chrome but those look great on with your stripe package and color. Good job.

I prefer polished aluminim, but those look great. Not many chrome wheels look good on cars to me. But I would consider them. I have the midnight R/S pkg wheels and wish mine were polished silver. I got my car off the lot, had no choice.
