Been waiting for these for a couple a weeks. The mailman just dropped them off.

Blue Blox lugs to match my blue tib!

They look nice, but they're aluminum right?

I would get longer wheel studs if so. Aluminum threads engaging the same amount of the studs as stock steel lug nuts sounds like a bad idea to me. I have nothing to back that up, just sounds sketchy.

Any good aluminum lug nut has steel threads. If these don't, trash 'em.
