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.

They do. After installation and basically only truck washing, they began to show rust spots.

New alternative that we just received.

A new Lug from Gorilla. It is a full 22MM rather then the previous 21MM we had been selling. (please no flame if you previously bought the others as these JUST came out after many requests).

Sadly, the previous set began to show rust after 4-5 months with only initial installation (no removal for rotations, etc.).

These are stainless so that problem is solved. Sucks for all those who bought the previous versions though.

You are right, I installed and the length is not an issue. Overall they look much better. However, they are actually not as wide as the factory / OEM and still show some of the silver around the stud holes. Here is a comparison of several of the gorillas and the ones from 797. The comparison is from AI, but I validated the width of my new ones (Gorilla Black Stainless) they are 27mm vs the OEM is 30mm. View attachment 22807

That’s a bummer. I thought these were the same width as oe so they wouldn’t show. I would like to see a pic to know if it’s noticeable or not. Thanks for posting up the info

A quick shot of matte black spray paint in the lug bores will solve this issue.

Is there a matching locking set with the newly improved kit?

How do you like this brand? Do they provide the same coverage as OEM?

 

[Nick797]

What if I haven’t installed my original set from you Nick, any way for some kinda credit towards the new version?

Send me a message.

Bumping for @Nick797

It is a stainless cap pressed around the lug nut like an OEM one.

Well that's disappointing. I was under the impression these had OEM coverage.

I’ve already asked a few questions that haven’t been answered, so may that’s my answer…keep the oems

Are these still the best option and for the ones that bought them, how are they holding up?

These cover just like OEM, and now been through midwest winter with salt and are holding up great. No scratches when installing and no rust so far though the winter.

I assume that price is for all 24? The page is a little confusing because the image shows 24 but the description says 6. I can't imagine 6 costing $127 but we do live in a crazy world.

I have a set of the newer black stainless Gorilla ones if anyone is interested. Not going to run black ones on my new wheels.

It says 6 lug because we also sell a 5 lug version for the charger/challenger & durango.. Part number ending in -24 reflects the 24 count.

Just a suggestion, it would make it more clear if it said 6x24. I plan on purchasing some after I pick up my truck. I know the silver stock lugs on a black rim is going to bug me. Not sure what the heck RAM was thinking when they blackout everything else on these.

Yup, got the nutz from @Nick797

Are they the gorilla brand?
