Very happy to announce the first batch of the Exhibitions Of Speed Custom Titanium lug nuts for the GT350R/GT350 platform are almost here! Once this initial batch is test fitted on my car I will update with photos and start getting a list of interested parties together. The last batch were great, and I think you will all be pleased with these.

Test fitting with the new titanium lug nuts is now complete. Fitment is confirmed and it is CLEAN. Price for these will be $350 + shipping. 30 sets will be ordered and take a few weeks to build. Any sets not paid for will be sold first come, first served. All pre paid lug nut orders will be produced. Send me a DM if interested.

@50Deep, How heavy is that tray and what’s the weight difference from the steel ones?
That is the top of the scale. I will need to weigh the other set, and I lost my OEM ones lol
You should make these for the Boss. I'd buy a few sets.

I would, but I haven’t had a boss customer purchase a set of wheels yet. I need the measurements based on how our wheels fit.

The first set of the Exhibitions Of Speed custom GT350/S550 titanium lug nuts is in production. The push for these came from a GT350R customer that wanted to order a set of our Signature Wheels. This customer told me that having the extended front studs exposed would be a deal breaker, so I set out to develop something that would solve the problem. For all GT350R and S550 owners swapping over to aftermarket wheels the front and rear lug nuts will no longer sit at the same depth. These lug nuts were designed based on our Signature Wheel specs on the GT350 platform and designed to sit evenly front to rear. They will be flush with the extended front and rear studs on the GT350R and sit evenly front to rear on all other GT350/S550 models. Although longer than OEM, the titanium provides a significant weight savings and increased strength.

I was EXTREMELY lucky to work with George at MGW on creating the design for the lug nuts. With some input from Tob at Caliperfexion a design was chosen to provide aesthetics, functionality, corrosion resistance, and strength. Production assistance was graciously provided by John at ZL1 Addons, as he pointed me in the right direction for titanium production. Between all of those great folks in the industry, this is the end result.

Keep in mind that the torque values provided by the factory for your particular vehicle take into account the amount of preload and stretch needed to be placed on the OEM studs. It is not necessarily a factor of the wheel you use. Even when using aftermarket wheels, you should always follow the OEM torque values. When using dissimilar metals like titanium and steel you will need to use anti-seize on the threads. Depending on the anti-seize you use, you will need to adjust the torque value that is needed. Be sure to check with the anti-seize manufacturer on what the formula is to reduce the torque value. Make the same inquiry if you have switched to an ARP, MSI, or another brand stud that may require a different amount of preload. Instructions for these are to install the lug nuts, tighten to spec, drive and put some heat into the wheel, then recheck the torque values.

There will only be 30 sets made on the initial order, and we have a 45 day lead time on production. Orders should ship to enthusiasts in 45 days, but keep in mind it could take slightly longer with this being the first batch. Chances are there will not be another batch produced until next year. Cost on these is you guessed it, $350 + shipping. California orders do need to pay tax. Below is a list of the interested parties I have. Invoices will be going out over the next couple weeks to pay for your order. If you have to drop, out all money will be returned. If you are interested then send me an email with your name, phone, and shipping address. Once all 30 spots are full I will let you all know. Don't forget the "s" at the end of exhibition...

These are so well executed I wish I had a car to put them on.

I still want these for my Boss. Shorter opened ends for the front and longer ones for the back. 1/2-20 - Someone got a Boss you can lend @50Deep ?
I would love to, but the market for them isn’t really there. R&D plus production cost on these is a lot. With the GT350 platform I have wheel customers that need/want the lug nuts so it drives the demand. Haven’t had a Boss customer come in for a set of wheels yet, and I need our wheels on the car for measurements....

The third batch of Exhibitions Of Speed titanium lug nuts for the S550/GT350/R will be coming soon. The solution to your lug nut issues on the GT350, GT350R and any S550 running extended studs. Designed to work with our Signature Wheel, and other aftermarket wheels that can accommodate the OEM lug nut. Substantially lighter, stronger, and easier to access without special sockets. They are also compatible with the OEM GT350 Wheel.

Made possible with help from MGW, Caliperfexion and Zl1 Addons. Limited quantities with only 4 batches made per year so don’t miss out. Cost is $405 shipped, so drop a comment and send an email to [email protected] if you are interested.

I am about to put in an order for the next batch of lug nuts. 30 sets will be ordered and have a 45 day lead time to build. Currently I have about 15 sets spoken for. Send me a DM with your email address to get on the list!
