Technical Help identify nippled lug nuts

Can anyone help identify the application for the "******d" lug nuts shown in the attached picture? I've asked around and people just stare at or want to touch them but have no answers. Thread is 1/2"-20. Thanks in advance.

 

i bet after market and the ******s are just for a different look............i want to touch them too.

 

******s...........did somebody say ******s¡¡¡¡

 

Funny how the ***le got my attention.

 

You guys should act your age....geez, thinking about girls all the time.

....oh wait... me too.

The combo of sleeved threads with a taper indicates that the application was one of those universal mags with oval lug holes and washers.

The ******? The only use I can guess would be to keep someone from using a regular lug wrench. You would need a deep socket to get a good grip on those.

 

Yea, you had my interest at ******S too!! Do the ******s on your nuts get longer when its cold outside?

 

ET type nuts.

The ****** thing....that's to make you want to buy them.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Best Answer^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

That's a ***ty twister of a ***le.

 

Only if you rub 'em!

 

Funny, isn’t it? Everybody’s interest peaks at the mere mention of ******s when ever mammal, both male and female have at least two?

I was a bottle baby and have no real mommy issues. Now if he said ****** lug nuts that would be entirely different, I like to eat at the Y.

I think logically if there was a mechanical reason the answer that @onetrickpony gave is probably as close to truth as any. When using chrome lug nuts you really don't want someone screwing them up with a lug wrench. Of course that could be a by product of the designer thinking that they looked cool.

 

This whole thread is just nuts !!

 

this thread is ***illating.

 

the motor wheel spyder posted by egads looks correct but keep us aBREAST of what you find out.

 

They look like ******d lug nuts to me.

 

Just can't get excited about nut's with ******s

 

Ain't it just the '***s'!

 

Egads! PLEASE Be careful!! ...you'll poke your eye out with that one!

 

i'm supposed to be working...

I am working,,,, really

 

I once went to the dealer for O.E. lug nuts. I told the person make and model of vehicle as requested. Then to my surprise he ask me "what do your nuts look like?"
