Default C8 Z06 Black Lugnuts?

I switched to carbon fiber wheels and my silver colors lug nuts don't look great. I would like to switch to black. Anyone bought lugnuts for the Z06? Where?

What do you think of these:

They are $250. The ones Dlr944 mentioned are $80. What would justify the difference?

Thanks!

This is cheap for titanium lug nuts which are lighter and stronger, but maybe not for everyone. I was just sharing a high end option that's cheaper than most. There are owners here that paid the same amount of money for GM's black steel painted lug nuts which are nowhere near as good.

gotcha. So I guess it’s just a choice of whether or not one wants lighter lugnuts or not?

Yes, they are lighter and corrosion resistant. I'm still trying to decide between the Paragon titanium and VMS stainless steel lug nuts. I had VMS SS lug nuts on my C5 Z06 snd really liked them, so that's probably the direction I'll take with my C8 unless Paragon has a good sale.
