Default Anyone have rec for lug nuts that will last

2013 F150 SCrew 4x4 Lariat
20” OEM PVD rims

Originals are starting to bulge.

I hit up amazon and some of the higher rated ones still get enough reviews of “pitting and rusting” (of chrome ones).

Gorilla brand is about the best on the market, unfortunately for you rust is going to be a concern no matter what brand you buy due to your location. Get a solid lug like Gorilla and keep the wheels clean.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DO NOT get the SS caped lugs, those are just like oem and will swell up. Use the website application guide for oem wheels. The lugs I bought are spline drive from Gorilla and they do come with a key of sorts but it's not really. A regular 6 point impact socket will fit them.

If you do get the spline drive like I have, it'll have the same size socket head as oem so your stock lug wrench will work with them.
