RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Thinking of buying these (steel version) to compliment the Brembo's does anybody have these and if so are they any good and how good is the colour match. Quote
Arran Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Don't think they do steel versions when I was looking they only had black and silver Quote
RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 I called tpi they said they have steel in gold. Quote
RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 They sell two versions, steel and aluminium Quote
Arran Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Furry muff, either those or demon tweeks will do Quote
RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 I found out that the Demon Tweaks are Aluminium, but they say they are as strong as aluminium, need to read the wording carefully. Quote
Arran Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Hmm says bright coloured steel, then style of a anodized nut but strength and low cost of steel? If they are alloy their product is miss described and il be returning them Quote
longsh07 Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I have TPI gold aluminium nuts and im well happy with them Not perfect match for the brembos (but close) and they scratch a bit easy on the sides but its not noticeable once on. They are super light too! Not sure i'd run them hard (on track) but perfect for a bit of style I brought mine from SixOneTwo.co.uk On my LMGT4's On my old GT4 alloys Quote
RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 They look very good, they now do them in steel which is what I will probably get. Quote
Arran Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Im going to call demon tweeks tomorrow and get mine clarified Quote
RafsZed Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 I actually called performance wheels and they confirmed that they are alloy not steel. Quote
RafsZed Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 I have called performance wheels directly, to clear this up, they have confirmed that they are steel and that they can suppy directly for £28 Quote
Payco Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I have a lovely set of neo chrome gold extended steel bolts on my Rotas. Not cheap £76 but if you want the details i can look them up for you. Great piece of kit. Payco Quote
RafsZed Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 i have ordered the Performance Wheels ones Quote
Arran Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Thought they were steel which turns out they are thankfully, will be fine for my track work then Quote
RafsZed Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 And all because one salesgirl didnt know what she was saying Quote
Arran Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Thats why I was pretty sure they were steel because the description is pretty clear on demon tweeks and had a search around the net to confirm. At least its all cleared up now, I haven't had any issues with mine they've stayed tight with no fitting marks and look great Quote
RafsZed Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 Well my wheels go off to be coloured antracite on monday and i should get my gold nuts tomorrow, so all looking good, might get whell spacers before I put my wheels back on the car. Quote
