Muteki lug nuts can be had for under $50 shipped on ebay, get some of those. If you can find one for sale that has "make an offer," offer like $44. I found some for sale for ~$50 or make an offer, so I put $44 and it automatically accepted my offer.
Motegi is a name brand. http://www.motegiracing.com/

I know that. I didn't see that they were motegi lug nuts... kind of strange that it wasn't in the title or a little more apparent.

very odd... i wonder why he didn't put it in the title of the other listing... seems like putting it in the title would be a free way of getting more people to look at the listing and potentially buy it.

Maby it has something to do with the Ebay search engine. If you searching for a color or a brand.

nope, the eBay search engine picks up everything in the title and body of the listing.
