    Received my Bronze set today but not crazy about silver lug nuts. What do I need as far as specs to get a set of black? Extended thread I assume?

    I used satin black Gorilla spline drive lugs. They look great. Matches the inside hub cover.

    Edit: Seems method sells their own as well: https://www.methodracewheels.com/products/lug-kit-black-spline

    My Hutchinson Rock Monsters are. But there is no modification to the tire or the wheel with them so your mileage may vary with others.

    SCS also offers a beadlock upgrade courtesy of Hutchinson I think. I inquired and it's not cheap but it's an option.

    Think it’s OMF that SCS partnered with for bead lock conversion.

    Did somebody say durable? These things are tanks! Custom color. Nature’s bronze.

    minimal rub (wheel well) with turning and full compression. UCA clear no issues (besides leaky boots) :/
