WTB: One Project Kics Lug!
I just snapped a Project Kics R40 12x1.5mm in Neo-Chrome. Now I need a replacement, it's just the regular lug without the lock. If anyone has one or a few laying around, I'd be willing to pay for one!

Yeah, this was just with hand tightening too, surprised indeed, used a gorilla wrench and snapped one right off. Maybe I could've applied more PB Blaster on it, but nonetheless, i expected this company to have been a bit stronger.

it's not from over tightening. these lugs are prone to breaking.

When I called Mackin they told me that they dont sell individual. So I was out of luck that is why I removed them and never put them back on.
