The socket size of a Lexus GS350 lug nut is 13/16″, so you would need a 22mm hex socket to fit. Depending on whether the end side of the lug nut is sealed, the Lexus lug nuts are split into open-ended types and closed-ended types. Open-ended lug nuts allow the studs to stick out. This looks cool in many racing cars, but an exposed lug stud is more prone to corrosion. On the other side, closed-end Lexus GS350 lug nuts completely cover the studs.
The closed-end wheel nuts prevent the rainwater and debris from entering the studs. This improves the anti-corrosion ability. Most people upgrade and modify their wheels along with Lexus GS350 lug nuts purely for aesthetics. In fact, good aftermarket wheel lug nuts are also a great way to get a little more performance improvement in your car. Lighter Lexus GS350 lug nuts often mean better fuel economy and acceleration.
Are Titanium Lexus GS350 Lug Nuts Worth It?
Titanium Lexus GS350 lug nuts are valued because of their high tensile strength-to-weight ratio. For the same sizes, Titanium lug nuts are much lighter than other wheel nuts. For example, each BONOSS Titanium lug nut weighs about 34g, and a set of BONOSS forged Titanium Lexus GS350 lug nuts weigh about 680g. That is why many racing enthusiasts will use Titanium wheel lug nuts to reduce the vehicle weight. What’s more, they feature extraordinary corrosion resistance. It seems that these Ti wheel nuts will never rust.
To further improve security, each BONOSS heptagon Titanium wheel nut is also a wheel lock. This means you get 20 wheel locks in a BONOSS heptagon Titanium Lexus GS350 lug nuts kit. Like other locking wheel nuts, this type of nut requires a special heptagon socket for installation and removal. Even if the thieves have a full set of socket wrenches, they won’t have the unique seven-sided socket to fit. These locking Lexus GS350 lug nuts effectively decrease the theft risk of your finest wheels.
