Black Lug Nuts for PP Wheels

[Modrodr]

Can someone point me in the right direction for the black lug nuts for the PP wheels? I remember reading somewhere that some of the lug nuts when installed will expose an unpainted ring around the lug nut area and a certain set will cover this area correctly. Can anyone with experience point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

If the lug is too small yea the metal will be exposed.
Why not just paint the current lugs?

For $40.00 its easier to just purchase them black. They will also probably hold up better as well. I know it is a common swap, but I also know there are a certain kind to purchase that will cover correctly.

These worked for me. The OEMs have a cover on them that slightly deforms when taken off. My socket would stick to lug. I got these and they are solid, so no cap to deform.

This is what you need. Fit like stock and no silver ring. I have them on mine.

Terrible idea that will come right off the moment you put a socket on them.

Get the Gorilla lugs. I bought the pack that has 20 wheel locks, and I am very happy with the purchase. Did I need all the lugs to be locking lugs? No. Do I like the extra deterrence? Definitely.

Also, side note...

If you have the Enhanced Security Package, and you jack the car up with the doors locked/alarm active, it will sound an audible alarm.

Agreed on the Gorrila lugs. Purchased mine from CJ's . The set I bought is 16 lugs and 4 of the locking.

+1 on this. Makes a big difference on PP wheels.

painting them would be silly.
powder coating them is an option though
