Another member posted they used them with the PP wheels. We just put ours on and love them.

What size locking lugs fit the 2015 Mustang GT PP? Much better look than OEM locks.

I too would like to know the size please.

i used 20pc Black 14x1.50 Gorilla Locking Lugs Wheel Locks # 71643NBC

I've had them for almost 4 years on my 12' and to be totally honest, they suck now. They start to oxidize in the notches and the wheel key develops burrs at the tips of the teeth so it becomes really difficult to get the key on the lug and then to take the lug out of the key afterwards.

I change my wheels at least twice a year, even more if I get the chance to hit the track. After the 3rd or 4th time I've changed wheels, they've been pretty aggravating. I wouldn't buy them again.

The Gorilla Automotive 71643NBC are NOT the ones you want. The Conical Seat contact area is smaller than the original lugs, NOT good for aluminum wheels tighting down @ 150ft-lbs! I bought these based on this thread and returned them to Amazon.

Gorilla Wheel Locks 96643BDX ARE the ones you want.
Key phrase here is: Conical Seat Type = Bulge
With these you will not see the "Silver Ring" of aluminum wheel showing around the smaller 71642NBC lugs, meaning you do have the design full Conical Seat contact area !!!

I found them at:

Slightly, same as the stock lugs.

i went ahead and bought the bulge gorilla lugs

I've heard some claims that the Gorilla lugs tend to rust. Would these McGards be a suitable alternative?

Yes, it appears so.

McGard 64074 Chrome/Black (M14 x 1.5 Thread Size) Bulge Cone Seat Style Lug Nut, (Set of 4)

The key word is "Bulge"

Below is Ford Part No: GR3Z-1A043-A, the dealer option accessory you can order and is designed for the Mustang stock aluminum wheels.

Note the bulge conical seat.

Wished I would have read this thread first. I bought the locking lugs sold by American Muscle #384874, and cannot recommend them. They are not designed properly for the Mustang. I don't like half A made stuff on my car. The taper seat is not nearly deep enough (not the bulge design) and you see a sizeable silver ring around the lug after installation. It is actually lower than the stock ones too. I put one on, looked at it and took it off. American Muscle are goods guys but that product stinks, sorry.

If the bulge ones go with stock wheels would the NBC (Non-Bulge Cone I'm guessing) go with after market wheels?
