Finally installed my Gorilla lug nuts! Very happy with them. I did the swap with the truck on the ground doing 2 at a time. I torqued all lugs to 150 foot pounds using a click style torque wrench.

My wheels appear to be identical to yours except for the center hub. I need to replace my OEM lug nuts. I was thinking black Gorilla Nuts would look good with these wheels and all the black trim and effects on my 2016 Scab. Mine are 20 inch wheels. I haven’t been able to find anything that leads me to the exact nuts I need. Do you think the ones you ordered will work on my wheels? Thanks.
They look nice. Hope you have better luck with those than I did with the chrome version. Mine started showing rust at six months & I don`t even drive the truck very often. I switched mine out for a set of Mcgards. More expensive, but it`s been over a year & they still look new. YMMV

I hear the gorillas are fine if you’re in an area where they don’t salt the roads. Hopefully the op is in a salt free area.
I put a new take off oem set on when mine were bulging cause they were only $20. I’ll go with McGard in the future if needed.

I ordered McGard first and returned them because the smaller overall size (and not fitting the OEM lug wrench) were both deal breakers. But it's a personal preference.
I always see mixed reviews on the Gorillas. Personally, mine have been installed for about a year and a half with zero signs of rusting but there isn't road salt where I live. So far, I'm happy.

Kenv, do you live in an area where they salt the roads. Or go you drive on beaches a lot? I don’t live where snow and salt is an issue.
I’m not sure why they would rust. I need to replace my OEM “swellies” and I’m trying to make sense out of all of this.
I went with the Gorilla because the factory wrench fits, and they look most similar to factory in size (proper overall size within the wheel). I did not like how the McGard looked (and they are the wrong wrench size) so I returned them.
