Thanks for this link. Just curious, how does one find out about a 1 day coupon for everything on eBay? Does the seller still get the same asking price?

 

Just ordered mine. 15% expired. $42 is still better than 70 something.

 

Any body know if it's acceptable to use the large cone flange lugs from the OEM alloy wheels on a steel rim? I've got a set of dedicated studded snows mounted on Ford steelies and want to use the cr@p OEM lugs for winter driving. My assumption is that it'll work fine, but would NOT work the other way around--i.e., small cone flange on OEM alloys. I'll plan on replacing the cheap-o OEM lugs in the spring when I remount the factory wheels/tires.

 

KB, you were perfectly clear. Amazon still had the CH lugs listed, but you lucked out and got the CX delivered, Good deal!!

Let's face it, if you see a Gorilla CH for sale at $12 for 40 pcs, , and a Gorilla CX at $42 for 24 pcs,, something is up. That is why I called Gorilla. The lady would not tell me directly that the CH sucked, but trust me, that was what she was hinting.

So, people still shopping for lugs should be careful if they run into the CH. There is a reason why they are 30¢ each, with shipping yet!!

 

Just ordered from Amazon on the 29th and got 24 of them today. Exactlt the same as in the photo in post 91. Beautiful heavy shiny chrome. I am a believer now. You can get 24 Gorilla 61148CX lug nuts for $42 shipped.

 

FYI.... I found this deal on Ebay for the 61148CX Gorilla Lugs.

After rotating tires and torquing the lug nuts, I can easily see this design will not be able to handle frequent tire rotations without having the metal caps deform with the metric socket. The two piece lug nuts on the 5 Jeeps I have owned did not show signs of stress and fatigue as quickly as these cheap nuts on my truck.

I will let every know how these look when they arrive.

 

I ordered 2 sets from that seller. Fast shipping and they are perfect.

 

Ordered gorilla one piece gorilla lug nuts (box of 100) for my mom's Focus (m12x1.5) because she has the same problem and even a 20mm socket won't get on one of the lugs. It's the same thread size as a lot of other vehicles so I'll be able to sell off the extra sets easily. Also ordered 1/2"-18 for our collection of Dodge Dakota/Durango trucks in the family and coworker circle as they have the two piece where the cap comes off and you need a 19 and 18 to remove the wheels. Got two vehicles swapped over yesterday and will get the other three within the next week. No more swollen or broken lugs when I get asked to do a brake job. Would have lived with being annoyed if I hadn't seen this thread a while back and ordered the lugs for my truck before I ran into a problem.
