Dont say black one side, chrome the other... 8)

Thoughts, reasonings? Lug nuts are black.

The only thing that puts me off the chrome is all the knock offs have chrome bolts....

They all come with black bolts from the factory. :wink:

Made my mind up. After looking through Ebay, every single LM replica has chrome bolts. Im going black.

I stand corrected. All the early LM's had black bolts.

Interestingly, That site doesnt even list the new LM's as available in 5 x 100.

Initally chrome but the black grows on you - maybe as it breaks the colours up a bit...
