I got a set of McGard for my daughter's Fiesta, I was very disappointed, After a year, they are a rusted mess! On the bright side I can still fit a 19mm socket on them with no issues. Next tire rotation, I will probably be replacing them with Gorilla Lifetime.
when I was perusing lug nuts I found this pic that dealer showed. brand new gorilla. broken. 2 or 4 piece. I just installed the mcgards and they are made in America, definitely 1 piece solid steel....1st pic is the new gorilla.. 2nd pic (4)lugs are my new mcgards. buy what you like.
I can assure you that the Gorilla 61148CX lug nuts are one piece and unless the threads on any chrome plated lug nuts do not have a flash of chrome plate they will show rust in time.
Those look great, where did you get them? I've been looking, without much luck, for a set to fit my 2019 OEM 20" wheels. If anyone knows please let me know.

Got the Rough Country Shackle kit put on. Removed the tow rings to bolt on these this morning. Some older D rings that I already had in my winch kit that I painted black and some red isolators finished it out... for now anyway. Makes attaching something to pull it all a bit easier.
Got my big pull rope in the other day.

did you look at the single pic above? I got it from sfxperformance.com. It is broken, never installed.

That is a reflection in the chrome. I have the same Gorilla lugs and they are indeed 1 piece. I don't think any company that is trying to sell a product would post a photo of a brand new broken item on the product page.

I got them (best price I could find)….xdpdieselpower.com mcgard 64023. I got 20 nuts as I already had the mcgard locking lugs, they gave me $10 off and free shipping cost me $15.74 for a 4 pack. my total $84.21.
Not that you need a lesson in not doing things but, a few days ago I was working under the hood, or actually with the hood up putting on a hood protector (bug deflector) on the wife's Flex. I pictured what it would be like to find any tiny black part that I dropped into the engine bay. Got an old HUGH tablecloth and covered the entire engine compartment, including the fenders. I think that I dropped 5 or 6 items, some repeatedly, and proudly patted myself on the back when I retrieved them readily. I know this is not a new idea, but anyone who has dropped a small fastener or part into the black abyss and wondered which opening they are in will appreciate this simple and time saving helper. I have spent more time looking for dropped parts than I have spent on an actual project. I don't work over grass or gravel for that exact reason.
For those who will say that they have been doing this for years, I say, why didn't you tell me?
Would I have been using my brain, I would have moved the cup containing all the clips and screws off the top of the intake air duct before I lifted it up to slip the cover under it. Sigh...
