One looks like there's a little corrosion on it, and another looks like it was hit by something and will need a little bit of cleanup with a die (which I've got). There's probably nothing wrong with them, but since I had a set of ARPs right there new in the package, I just just decided to use the nicer lugs instead.

That's with a 15mm spacer... a 3mm spacer is going to make those Ichiba lugs look massive.
