I'm going to be a bit simple and ignorant here. I would like to replace my lug nuts on my Sport 20" wheels to be black. Ford sells a set for $165 and I think that is just crazy, but also I just don't want to buy some crap that might fall apart or rust (In my research I've found some that have rusted).

anyone have any suggestions for a reasonably priced set of lug nuts that fit the F150?

Thank you both. @Kidder, you got me on the right path and @UGADawg96 You found the same place I did.

It's half the price of the Ford option Though I think the Ford ones are 2 piece lug nuts.

Is there any benefit to a 2 piece lug nut?

Multiple of the soft, chrome capped OEM lug nuts stripped on my 2013. I replaced them with a set of black one piece units from Gorilla. They held up great. The powder coat finish never chipped and they didn't rust, even through many Canadian winters.

The black lug nuts are going to the first thing I do to my truck. That Gorilla set looks nice.

Kind of old thread but I got a nice set of black lug nuts from Threadstrong. The are well made from a known US manufacturer of fasteners. They are still on sale for $72 for a set of 24. They fit perfectly on my OEM 20” black wheels. The website has before and after pics of the Ford black wheels with their nuts.
 

s.v.t.

I’ve used the main brands out there. My recommendation is McGard. They will last longer. I ordered this set from Jegs. Spent more for the locking lugs.

I have the Ford accessories. Only have them on for a week, but swapping them onto our Expedition.

I've been on the hunt for spline nut in black. My F150 is getting wheels that have small diameter recess for the lug nuts.

Tried to source mcgard but they are crazy expensive for 24.

Ordered the Gorilla black spline. I'll post up when they arrive.

I just ordered these, can't believe the BAP wheels come with chrome lug nuts

And if you get the BAP with the single exhaust, you get the chrome tip instead of the black one. :( I'll be replacing both lugs and tip on my dime.

Dont remind me, lol
I think I'm going to have some corsa black tips welded on and maybe tighten up vertical fitment if possible. Not sure it's worth $400 after labor but need something more than a chrome tip or straight exhaust pipe.

Yup, I dropped about $350 for the black lug nuts, Ford black exhaust tip and the labor to weld the tip on.
