They are gold-cadnium in color (very pretty!)and sold on Ebay. They were made in Estonia out of pot metal that breaks if torqued to spec. I had 2 snap off, so I told the seller, this was about three years ago. Anyway, he told me it was MY fault, that I overtightened them! I sent them back and asked for a refund. They refused to send me my money but about 2 months later-- a check arrived in the mail, including my shipping costs. All I can figure is he had more complaints. Keep in mind this was three years ago. The lug bolts on Ebay now are from the same guy but I can't say he hasn't improved them. BUT- use your head, only use original Soccar ball lug bolts, they are really well made and never crack in half from being over torqued.
