Black lug nuts

[JS59]

When you look at sets make sure they are quantity 24. Most of their sets are 20 lug sets.
Post 8 and post 1 show the wheels with standard lug nuts installed.

Why do we need 24? I get that the economics are better for the same price, but the spare doesn't use lug nuts, correct?

6 lugs per wheel, 4 wheels

Thank you. My bad for not scrolling back. I don’t suppose that small silver ring bothers me much at all. I’ll probably be doing this… just need to decide whether to go with standard hex lug or splines.

If I was to do it again I would have just got these and saved the money. They are 30mm wide like factory and are hex which makes rotation’s so much easier.

Yes, I'm an idiot . . . Was thinking only 3/4 ton and up trucks had 6 lug - but I guess those are 8 lug . . .

I’ve consistently seen people say the Amazon (or any non-Gorilla brand for that matter) flake the black coating off and/or rust easily. I can’t speak for these ones in particular, though… just something to be aware of. Seems like the reviews on these ones you posted are pretty solid.

Just ordered my black lugs paid $50 for set of 24. 20 regular & 4 locks.

Lugs changed to black and power steps on! Next up tint and ceramic!

FYI, I'm told you need a 21mm wrench for the black lugs. Stock is a 22mm.

Talked to 797 today and told them my RHO has Black Stock Rims and these were the lugs they recommended for full coverage. The ones posted earlier on here by them were locking (4), non locking but longer lugs, and ones only for beadlock rims only. I have a lock on mine right now and for tire rotations and living in a pretty safe area I don't want to have to hassle with keeping track of the key and giving it to the shop for rotations. Hope this helps anyone else trying to blackout your rims.

Let us know how these look when you get them. Read some reviews that the paint flakes off them very easily and want to get some black lugs for mine when it comes in but don’t want something that’s gonna get beat up putting them on the first time.

Right on. I'll have to look into that before I order them. My truck is supposed to arrive at dealer May 14th so might be a few weeks. I'll post when I get them installed.

These are 30mm just like factory and are all the same size and use the same lock key for all 24. Still even with buying them you can still see silver when looking from an angle unless you touch up the area with paint. Not sure why people seem afraid to apply a little paint.

I ponied up and ordered these - they are great. Granted, mine are on satin black OEM TRX bead lock wheels - but wow what a difference. These trucks have zero chrome/shine on them and I used to always look at my truck and smile until my eye caught the lug nuts - it was hard for me to not think "wtf is that?" Worth $150 for my sanity! I'm surprised that they wouldn't completely cover the silver on the factory black wheels - the flanges are pretty wide.

A must have IMO!

Curious which black lug nuts have held up best - no black paint scraping off and no machine alloy showing through on wheel? About to order some and want to ensure I order the "right" ones. TIA!

 

[TheGhost_ST]

I have some Mcgards that i have had in the pkg in my garage for years i will run them for now

 

[RHONC]

Will someone please share an update on how their black lugs nuts have held up and if anyone found as set the fully covers the silver. I am ready to purchase and want to get some insight from some of you who have run them for a while.

 

[Guest1897]

Anyone switching out the silver lug nuts for black ones on the black rims?

Thank the lawd! It drives me crazy, just like the silver tape weights on the black wheels. I do not yet have my truck, but with my OCD I will probably drive straight to the tire shop to have those 2 things done!

Just ordered these Nick. These are also black stainless vs the prior versions are black chrome. Appears to be a better product (width and material).

Yes! I was going to mention that. Some guys are turned off by the cap, but I've checked a few out already so far and they seem really nice.
