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.

Best lug nuts for 2015+?
Hey guys, as a lot of you know the OEM lug nuts are junk. I ordered a set from amazon but after test fitting them I won’t be using them as the mating surface area that holds up against the rim is much narrower than stock.
Has anyone bought a good quality set they can recommend? I’m using stock wheels.

Gorilla 61148CX from eBay.

The reason I went with Gorilla, was to match my locking lugnuts.
