My story.

I kind of fell into selling these lug nuts because I bought some aftermarket wheels and my oem lug nuts didn’t fit the 1” bore. The wheel dealer gave me these very long, very heavy, and cheap looking lug nuts so I ended up making my own.

My background. I have a BS and MS in mechanical engineering. I’m also a licensed professional engineer in the state of California specializing in machine design so I know what I’m doing.

I’m a Tesla owner and I’ve been on TMC for quite a while and some of the other facebook groups. I’m not sure if this business is going to take off so I’m on TMC for a limited trial, I’m on facebook marketplace and ebay as well.

If you have any questions please ask I’ll try to answer the best I can.

I love titanium, but can rarely afford it.
Do these fit factory wheels? I know people get lug nuts in titanium for Porsches, I guess time will tell if Teslas get to the same level accessorizing. I would think so, since there are far fewer “things” to modify/change on these, compared to ICE cars.

Do you have versions with ends closed? Or do they all expose the studs?

The versions I have are all shown. I’m working on matching studs.

Do you have pictures of what it looks like installed with OEM studs?

 

[Gurujeff03]

Model s and model 3 studs are different. I have some pictures of my s and the SL on Facebook and there is a model 3 pic as well. The guys on the Tesla mods Facebook group have purchased a few sets so you can search there for more.

Galvanic corrosion?

 

[jhartbarger]

Any timeframe on the machined studs?

 

[Gurujeff03]

Should be pretty soon. You are 1 of the ones on my short list. They will be sold out when I get them.

 

[Gvardaman]

Do you mean the length for the studs is different?

 

[Gurujeff03]

Yes. The S has a little longer stud w no threads to help with cross threading.

Don’t you mean they are the same since they are both m14 x 1.5?

 

[Gurujeff03]

Don’t you mean they are the same since they are both m14 x 1.5?

Nope. I was pointing out why they are different. They do have the same thread.

I didn't realize Tesla's oem lugs are lighter than UPPs already. Which models come with the gen2 lugs?

Same torque specs - 129 ft lbs?

 

[jeffbco]

Is there a link to order?

Interested as these evolve. Can you share oem weights vs. yours?

 

[Gurujeff03]

Same torque specs - 129 ft lbs?

Depends on if you use antisieze. Dry they are about the same 130 but if you use anti-sieze it lubricates and lowers the torque about 30-40%

Lug weights are in the OG post. Studs I will share when I have them in hand and tested.
