i believe they were buddy club extended lugs. very similar to the skunk2.

No... I distinctly remember it because he got them for way cheaper. I forgot the brand, but I told him that buddy club made the exact same lugnuts, but they were being sold for 33 bucks for a set of 4. I think he got his for like 75 bucks for all 16.

**edit**

Never mind, here's the thread.

I've always liked my Gorilla set. Never had a problem with them (except when I misplace the key )

I paid $9.99 for S&H from JC Whitney for my Gorilla lugs. Still seemed expensive to me.
