It wasnt designed structurally to be tightened down with no head on it. Open ended lugs are made to hold up to that pressure.

i dont think you understand how thin that metal is and that makes little sense to me

tell you what ill do the same thing i did with know it all mike ill give you 10 bux if i split a nut btw i think if one can handle the stress of installing 8 studs with no problem i think it can handle the torque required for holding on a wheel

number 3 these are threaded the whole way up unlike shitty aftermarket nuts with like a centimeter of threads

number 4 it would be pretty hard to split with the right sized 6 point socket

but i will say you are thinkin outside the box

Its no the end of the Lug. Some honda lugnuts have "caps on them" that can be tapped out with a punch to make them open ended.

Your right, I'm sorry I don't mod 10-20 year old cars. And you would be correct I know absolutely nothing about working on old ass hondas, and acuras. And your correct I have no clue what to look for on beat ass old cars. Had to wait to get home to take quick pictures and post what I am working on and what I DO know what to "look for". :dogpile:

And forgot another thing that is currently getting wired right now....
