        some people say ''show only'', but i say ''race only''.

        titanium has characteristics that would make it desirable for race applications.

        it's not a rare metal, but an exotic metal. it's lighter than aluminum, yet stronger than steel. it's also the hardest metal. if they made shaving razors out of titanium, you could use it for quite sometime before it went dull. it's sparks are ultra white, unlike steel which are amber.

        i say it's the perfect accessory for any true race enthusiast. later.

            What about carbide lug nuts....? Those are wicked. lol

            The hardest form of tungsten carbide is harder than titanium alloys, and only under extreme circumstances, such as abrasion from diamonds, can it be damaged.

            Those would be some serious nuts..... Bahahahaha!

                isn't tungsten carbide a chemical compound and not a true metal? i'm not real sure, but i know they usually coat the bits with titanium carbide.

                and yeah, they'd be some bad ass lug nuts. later.

                  Well, they use tungsten for TIG welding electrodes.... Oh, and carbide tips are BONDED to steel router bits for woodworking.

                      Who fuckin' cares? It's his money...

                      If he can afford it, then why the hell not...

                      No one ever said anything about modding on a budget, some people have the cash to spend and some people just talk shit about the people that have the cash to spend.

                      Some people get what they want and some people try to justify why they shouldn't get it.

                          When I have the money to buy wheels that cost $1800 and up, I'd definitely grab those haha don't get me wrong, I think they're really nice..I think a lot of ppl are hating on these 3 pages 'coz they jus don't have $600 to spend on lug nuts, simple as that..That's why this dude buying a set of $600 titanium lug nuts jus didn't make any sense to them..Didn't make sense to me either, but like I said in page 1, that's jus 'coz both of my wheels combined still cost less than those lugnuts hehehe..

                          There was another set of lug nuts that are priced pretty high up there..Can't remember the brand tho..KCI? RCI? KCR? Something like those, I can't remember..Those are pretty nice as well..

                              Or just buy some nice CHROME ones and send them here, http://www.mfxwheels.com/ it has to be cheaper. according to their pricing list,anything smaller than 15 sq inches, will be $2 a sq inch.Looks like thats the way to go.
