    I need to buy some lug nuts for my steel snow tire set. I want some that are solid (not the shells that get loose and swell up) and won’t rust for a while. In other words, I want some decent quality lug nuts.

    I see lots on eBay, Amazon, etc, but also see a lot of comments about poor quality.

    Anyone find some decent ones???thanks!

    Bought a set of Gorillas for my Steelies. Received most of them today… but they look good.

    thanks for the recommendation. I’ll be looking next to buy a set for the mags…they use the hat style. Does Gorilla sell those somewhere? Don’t see them at my common haunts.

    update: the new Gorilla lugs are the proper thread size, but slightly smaller in outside diameter. The original nuts are 22mm and the new ones are 21mm. I don’t see an option on Gorilla’s site for a direct replacement. Anyone actually using the Gorilla? They are part number 71147B. Do I need to send them back? It looks too small for proper seating…

    Update 2: the correct Gorilla Lug nut for The Tundra steel wheels is:91147b. It has the 22mm bulge that provides the perfect support of the wheel.
