so i bought some new wheels i'm really excited about and decided to get some new gold lugs. i've purchased "anodized" ones in the past off ebay that looked really nice for a while then faded to nothing. i'd like to buy some that will actually hold the finish. can anyone recommend some decent ones? i'd like to spend less than $50 if possible.

here's a link to the wheels. 20x8.5 +38

also, random question but how do you know what lugs will work with your wheels? usually i just ask whether something will work but i'd like to know.

You would be better suited to get plated lug nuts rather than anodized if you don't want to color to fade but you have to be careful working with them so you don't nick the plating.

Have a look at the ones from Sick Speed.

Also make sure you are getting some hub centric spacers for those wheels so they fit properly.

So many times I've gone to purchase those great looking extended coloured lugs . The local import speed shop here tells me the will fade and chip easy . They are great if you hardly never put a wrench on them . Also you have to see how much space you have for the lug & socket inside the lug holes . Aftermarket rims are a tight fit . There are sockets with rubber protective coating so they will not scratch or chip . The easy way & cheaper is steel coloured Mc guards spline dive . Even though anodized is a pain they look the best . IMO
