What is a decent brand of extended lug nuts that I can get for my 4x100 12x1.5 setup. I plan on ordering extended wheel studs as well. I need something that can handle weekend road racing. Nothing fancy nor crazy expensive. Thanks.

Check ebay. I got a set of aluminum open end extended lugs for $50 shipped.

If you're running an extended and want extended lugs, make sure the lug is thread all the way through, not just the bottom portion.

Lug nuts arent something I'd cheap out on... idk.

This is what happens when you do...

Maybe brands like Muteki, Blox, or Blackworks?

Many companies make good lug nuts that are open that work with the extended wheel studs. But don't cheap out on them other wise you will have issues. And if you do the extended wheel studs you will want to replace the wheel bearings in the front because you will have to press the hub out to put them in. Great time to replace ball joints as well.
