$179.00 for lug nuts just because they are black. They aren't the only thing that are nuts. JMO.

Gorilla has black and chrome lugs. I actually think gorilla is better than oem/maybe fp.

But definitely all going to work the same.

Gorillas on mine. The OEM lugs were junk.

+4? 5? lol on the gorillas. Got them at CJ with discount. The OEM style are 2 pieces pressed together and self destruct (with a little help) and cost is nosebleed high compared to aftermarket. Dealer tech recommended I go aftermarket because of this. When I brought the box of Gorillas in to him so they could rotate the tires, he said "oh yeah, these are good ones"

Go with the Gorillas. I got the black individual locking lugs (20 locking lugs) for like $100 back in 2016, and they're well worth it. They give a little more peace of mind over non-locking lugs (I know that no locking lug is perfect), look good, and have held up to over three years of the wheels being removed and installed multiple times.

@jacknifetoaswan

Does the coating not chip or scratch along the splines for the locking key ?

Do you daily drive or is it a garage queen ?

Do you torque to 150 ?

Sorry for all the questions - Just trying to get an idea of how these things will last in the UK :like:

Cheers,

WD :like:

I torque my gorillas to 150. I use chrome, all look same as I put them on off. I have had wheels off more than I like.

These Gorilla lugs are well made. 150lb ft as well no issues. I use them on steelies and PP1 rims OEM size.

FR are crazy money. So don't waste yours.
