I'm just wondering if these are just better in the long run for durability...not so much on weight.

went in for a tire service and the mechanic was going to use an impact to tighten.

Impact is only ok if they use torque specified wheel sockets.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Pros? Cons? Would really like to hear from any owners out there especially...thanks!
I'm just wondering if these are just better in the long run for durability...not so much on weight. I'm more interested in things like heat standing, friction, strength...etc. Thanks..
Well, I've never heard of a properly torqued steel (oem) wheel bolt breaking under normal circumstances. Not sure I would be looking at Titanium bolts for anything other than bling, and it
would
be pretty cool to say you had titanium bolts
i have seen them advertised list price of SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY BUCKS. poser bling. if people wanna spend that kinda coin on your knutz ....then they are knutz.
Anyone remember the Alloy lug nuts from the 80's ? super light but did not stand up to much abuse. Now I see more Porsches with lug bolts like most other cars, Mini , BMW and such.
went in for a tire service and the mechanic was going to use an impact to tighten. I was going to beat him with it.
I swear some people putting on wheels over tighten at least one or two of them - not all - just for kicks, and it always ends up being the last one you try to take off.
Impact is only ok if they use torque specified wheel sockets.
$700 on a 20k turd is hard to justify, especially if that's your only mod. I'd rather keep a pair if Depends and bottle of ExLax in the glove box when I need to save further weight on the weekends when all the ricers are out.
I bet they make titanium bolts for most everything in the engine or car, and other really lightweight parts... If a person really wanted to make the effort and go through things.
