Where to get cheap Mag lugs (Draglite Xp's) ?
Anyone know a source where I can get some cheap mag lugs for my Draglite XPs. (12mm x 1.5)
I've been watching EbayMotors for over a week probably and all I ever see is Draglite lugs, even XP lugs.
Draglite XP's take:
Duplex Mag with 1.75" Shank and washers
Summit and Jegs sell them but I don't really feel like giving them 11 bucks+shipping for 4 lugs with I need 20 lugs total.
I called Weld Racing... they said they're sorry but they don't sell to private people... I have to go through Summit or another one of there distributors.. (which I think is a big rip off since prices are listed on there website... which are supposely the list prices but operator said stores often sell cheaper than that... *really sale twice as much as that*)
I checked at local stores here and they only carry up to around a .5" shank... I'm gonna stop by the two tire places next week to see if they can get me some.
Anyone know of a place on the net for these lugs?
Not really too worried about being NHRA legal since I'm 2 hours from closet strip... but I would like to get open lugs so I can put on longer studs eventually if need'd ( and I could still swap back to my 16" OEM wheels if I kept it 12mm)

Well I'm going to check the tire places today... so I'll yet everyone one know what I find out...
So far Farm King carries only .5" shank dup mags
Auto Zone none...
JC Auto (local store) only carries .5" shank dup mags
Might just have to bite the bullet and buy from summit.

Local stores couldn't get the duplex mags... they could order the SST kind though...
I got a phone number of a Weld Racing Distributor from IA. I'm gonna look into that see if there cheaper there than from summit.

Yeah... I know I do it all the time. Well I figured I might as well share the information.
I'm really not crazy... By the way does everyone else feel like other people on the road are staring at you and working with local law enforcement to catch you breaking laws?

I'm going to call that company today (if I have time) and see if they carry the lugs.
Eastern Iowa Tire
563-388-0440
I'll let everyone know what I find out.
Might also try Lone Star Racing cause I see they carry them.
