Are you looking for a spline style or an OEM style lug? Also, are you looking for a full set of 24 lugs with locks, or just want a locking lug to replace one lug on each wheel?

Most economical would be to get a set of black Gorilla lugs. They’re a gloss/satin black. Not gray though.

personally i have never been a fan of locking lug nuts, and that stems from a used truck i bought years ago. to say it was a pain to get the wheel off with no key is the understatement of the year. almost ruined the wheel doing so.

when people ask about locking lugs i always ask them one question - have you ever had a wheel stolen off your vehicle? i haven't...

me personally no but i know 3 people who have had their wheels stolen since moving to South Texas 7 years ago and one of the sets were stolen while the truck was parked in my driveway.

ill probably just paint or powder coat the chrome spline drive ones i have.

Agreed. It's bad all over Texas. And they steal stock wheels more than custom.
