Title: Re-Produced Lugnuts & Inserts for Original BRMs & EMPI 8's
Post by: SlingShot on May 27, 2010, 08:12:42 am
Hey guys, just got my latest project done. Lugnuts and Inserts for Original BRM's & Empi 8 spokes. The Lugnuts are designed after the Empi 8 spoke versions but work for both style wheels, they offer the 45 DEG taper only seen on the original lugs. The only difference between an original BRM lug and an Empi 8 lug is the end of the lugnut is more rounded on the 8 spoke version then the original BRM, and honestly looks better IMO. The Lugnuts are made of Heat Treated Steel, and Chrome Plated.
The Inserts are wheel specific. I carry both types. The only difference being the length of the insert from the head down. The Inserts are made of Stainless Steel.



Prices As Follows:
20 Lugs and Inserts for BRM's = $270.00 Shipped in USA, $285.00 Shipped Everywhere Else
16 Lugs & Inserts for Empi 8 Spokes = $215.00 Shipped In USA, 230.00 Shipped Everywhere Else
Lugs $7.50ea + Shipping
Inserts $6.00ea + Shipping

If Only you offered both styles.   IMO I like the flatter look to true BRM lugs.  Do you ever think you might produce them as well?
But I'll have to say that what you are making looks perfect!!

Is the thread M12 1,5?

I could use some M14 1,5 for a bus. Do you have those too ?

Thanks,

I don't think these will work for you. I'm pretty sure there were 2 different versions of Original Empi 5 spokes. First version used ball seat lug bolts, and the second used a mag style lugnut.

The Late 5 spokes use the Same insert and Lug as the 8 spoke but used a Brm  12mm/14mm Stud the early countersunk 5 spokes use a ball seat type lugs
