Default Lug Nut Suggestion

I have 18" OEM Wheels that have been powder coated black. I'm looking to get some matching lug nuts but not sure where to turn. Amazon has a bunch but ratings and quality are all over the place. Any suggestions for quality gloss black lug nuts that will fit the OEM wheel?

Gorilla or McGard ... full set has one locking (keyed) per wheel with the balance standard ... purchase directly to avoid counterfeits on Amazon ... yes, many on Amazon are "no-name" brands ... so buyer beware. Amazon is not a "seller" ... they are a "fulfillment" company ... so no guarantee of quality.

Thanks ASE, both those companies look legit.

I don't think those will fit my OEM wheels? Vossen site says for Vossen wheels only and they are conical. I believe I need flat. Never realized how confusing lug nuts could be O.o

Lexus uses McGard as OEM ... the (McGard) "key" exactly fits in the molded tool case in the back gate. In fact, if you attempt to order directly from McGard for a Lexus vehicle, they refer you to Lexus given they are a Lexus OEM supplier and therefore cannot sell direct. Yes, McGard has Black ... but per the above, you would need to order thru Lexus.

Yes, you are right about the Vossen lug nuts... I just remembered that they did mention that to me.

Maybe its possible to use black lugnuts for a 4runner. I think the wheels and offsets are the same. They do have models with black wheels, maybe they have black lugnuts as well
