Hey, I think that is the right ones, and they also have for $2 more qt 25, seems like a good idea to have a spare to me. https://www.ebay.com/itm/16104964468...-desc-maincntr
I actually like they are 21mm and the bulge on bottom seems a bit better than the McGard ones (one thing I didn't like about them)

Excellent! Thanks for seeing that $25 pack. Yes, a spare is a good idea.

I did notice there are ebay sellers that seem to have them cheaper and quite possibly they are counterfeits.

I bought the 25 pack of the Gorilla ones. Hopefully they last at least a few years. The part number does match up to what people here have said fits our trucks in old threads.

After you get them and evaluate, please come back with feedback. I did not order yet, plan to with next tire rotation, a couple months out.

I'm going to have them put on with the new tires. It might be a couple of weeks or even a bit longer. But, at least I'll have them and was able to make my own choice on which lugnuts are going on it.

I replaced the junk OEM capped lug nuts with Eisen 14 x 1.5 solid chrome nuts for my '16 Edge. I've had them now for 1 year and they look exactly the same as when I bought them. Cost was $36 for qty 20. I recommend them - but I am not familar with them for F150's.

They did arrive from the ebay seller super fast. I bought them on a Thursday and on Saturday they were in my mailbox.

Belle Tire is supposed to be having some kind of a sale that is starting tonight so I will check that out and see if there is a deal on a tire I like or not. It's not an emergency on my tires as winter has been quite mild this year and they have not hydroplaned on me either. Interesting as the OEM Goodyear Wranglers that were initially on my 03 Ram were the worst tire I've ever had for hydroplaning and here on my Ford they are low on tread and have not done it.

Thought I would share as I just bought my wife a 2018 Edge Titanium and decided to do what I do with all my Fords, replace the lug nuts. Turns out it uses a M14x1.5mm just like our trucks. I had been trying to find a good price on McGards and then stumbled on the fact that Gorilla has 2 levels of lug nuts, 1 year warranty and Lifetime warranty against rust. I just purchased these lifetime lugs from an eBay seller with stellar feedback and he assured me through messages, that these are in fact genuine Gorilla lugs.

Well, that's interesting. The ones I bought only have a one year warranty

Took a some research on the Gorilla website to determine, as they only have like 8 or so lug nuts listed as "Lifetime" and none have a letter designation at the end of the numbers. Also they are all chrome, no black ones are lifetime.
