    Default Short wheel lugs/nuts or long ones ???

    Im guessing there would be no real difference in quality etc ?

    Why we got the option of 2 and real reason ?
    Or is it just for looks ??

    Have been looking at the Rays, a tad pricey at $200 a set though

    I have seen some wheels that have deeper holes than normal - I would assume that is why there are longer nuts.

    they reason is for fitting them to longer wheel studs on rally/drift cars. on regular street cars with regular length studs, it is just wasting money buying the long ones.

    this is the primary reason, but also cosmetic
