    as I finish the small bits of chrome delete from my pro, I am having trouble locating compatible black lug nuts. There were a few on Amazon, but reviews are mixed. Anyone have any feedback on ones they used? Does Toyota make oem ones?

    @Jim LE 1301 got them on mine. I will say if you have a locks on your wheels, then you'll have to make up the difference of the smaller lock lug. At least mine. They look good, money well spent. :thumbsup:

    Can you wrap the lock with electrical tape then put the cover on?

    @Jim LE 1301, this isn't the best pic, wait it is...It's a gas station pic with my black baby girl hahaha. Anyway here's my lug caps, They do the job, they offer a retracting tool, but you can pull them off with needle nose pliers. Hope this helps :thumbsup:

    Just FYI. Gorilla makes black lugs. And they are solid steel. Not like the stockers with the gauge metal/steel "wrap" that twists, distorts then goes to shizter. Pretty much a one-and-done.

    I realize the OP has gone with the cap idea. But down the road.....Or others contemplating.

    thanks, actually the gorilla ones don't fit, they were the first place I went. The stock lugs are 1.81" tall, .87 thick, the gorilla black ones are 1.5 tall and .725 thick. an email confirmed that they dont fit. However, "wheeladaptersusa.com" has black OEM lugs. But I went with the cap because they are just anodized, and will probably scrape off after the first time taking them off. The cap you can remove and put back on.

    I didn’t know about the black caps. I got black acorn lug nuts from Wheelers Offroad. I think they’re a Gorilla brand. Given their size, though, none of my cross lug wrenches would fit in the wheel’s lug hole, so I had to use a thin-walled socket to fit in there to tighten them up.
