As an alternative.... I made a jig out of a block of wood, and just rattle canned the tops of the lugz. Really, this is a majority of what is visible when installed and is not contacted when removed or installed.

I'm going to go with "drill 5 holes in a 2x4 @ the diameter of the lug bolt."
cardboard will work too. or the bottom of an egg carton, whatever. just something to hold them so you don't have to and to keep paint off the threads.

Anyone paint theirs something other than black? That could be an interesting little touch...?

Yes...I painted mine Imola....and black before....but since I went with the TMS spacers...I got new black lugz.
Painted black
Painted Red > Did start chipping because I wasn't careful when putting my socket on there. I have my wheels off typically, once per week.
