I can't answer your question but I just saw your ride in person yesterday and it's awesome. Some coworkers and I went to Old Chicago for lunch and I spotted you in the lot. Your pics don't do the wheels justice. They are beautiful in person. I hope you can find the lugs you want because I think that would be a nice addition.
Have a good one,
Snack
Thanks Snack! My youngest teenage son and I had lunch there at Old Chicago too. I've got my next mod on order, Magnaflow Duals!!! I painted the calipers last weekend, but am waiting on the caliper decals to come in before I post pics. We need to get together and shoot-tha-sh1t!
Mustangaretuff,
Please post a link...and did they have anything besides black?

Well that's just too awesome of a coincidence. My 06 is supposed to be in tomorrow but we'll see. If not, it will be in shortly. I'll PM you when it does and we can get together and talk Stangs.

Mustangaretuff,
Please post a link...and did they have anything besides black?
I ended up purchasing from Summit racing, the guys at Sacramento Mustang would not price match so they loose the sale. As a matter of fact I was kind of pissed. I offered to by Sac Mustang is now off my list of places to purchase.
I got the black chrome, they also have chrome. Their may be other colors as well but you will need to check with Gorilla.
I still don't know what to order from Gorilla. Everything is listed as 12xsomething.
Can someone let me know what they ordered from there so I know what metric equivalent size to order. They have blue; and I found a butt-load of blue on evil bay...but they are all 12 x something. I bought that one set at the autoparts store and it was 12 x 1.5 (if I remember...not sure now) and it didn't fit. There are some nice blue ones that are 14mm x 1.5...anyone think they'll fit?
The acorns on there now are 13/16 hex nut to remove. Does this figure in the equation in what you buy?
I guess I just need it spelled out for me. I don't want to order the wrong thing.

I would just call Gorilla customer service. They can tell you the part number if they have blue for your car. 1/2 inch by 20 thread. No metric equivilant that I know.
Just gave in and went to the shop that I ordered the wheels from. They ordered me some 1/2x20 blue anodized "tuner" lugs with key. I'll pick them up Friday and put them on and post some pics.

So, I went to pick up my lug nuts today. Guess what? The blue "tuner" lugs were all the open ended key type and they were too short!!! The lugs stuck out so far you couldn't tighten the nuts down. What a pain in the arse! Why does it have to be so hard? I bet if I was back in Houston I could find some lugs to fit (off the shelf, no less) in a hour.
Okay, here's my other idea. Let me know if any of you think it'll work. What if I painted the tops of my acorn stock lug nuts with touch-up paint that matches my car? I really want the blue anodized look, but it's getting to be too difficult finding any.
