Hi guys, just purchased my first set of aftermarket wheels for my '09! Very excited to put these on, but I think I keep confusing myself when I try to pick out the right aftermarket lug nuts/locks.. I think they need to be thinner, but longer? Can anyone recommend a set of chrome locking lug nuts that would fit my FX with 20"x9" Milanni Tycoon 9052 wheels?

Just worried I'll order the wrong style/size/length/etc...

Much appreciated!
 
I thought you had splined tuner lug nuts picked out.
Just get them with tapered seats in size 12 x 1.25 thread.
 
Hi Wayne, I did and was about to purchase the lugs along with the wheels from a shop in Cali.. but I found the same set of wheels $90 cheaper this morning.. Now they wont come with the lugs.. There's almost too many options/styles/ etc to choose from, kept going in circles on the Gorilla lugnut website..

would the taper seat be the same as the cone seat?
 
Yes, get hold of Zebra, he will hook you up. Great to deal with and knows his stuff.
 
I appreciate his contact info guys! I actually just found and bought a set of McGards (same company who makes the OEMs lugs) on amazon for $80 shipped with 4x locks and 16x splined lugs plus 4x chrome valve stems.. Set goes for $150+ on McGards own website..

I'll be sure to keep him in mind when I start on my next 'project'
 
Thanks zebra555, I think I'm all set with the lugs.. However i'll definitely be spending some time on your site today; discovering that is going to put a serious dent in my wallet LOL
 
Sounds good. Please note, that I can give you a better pricing on some parts that you see on our website.
 
I have gorilla spline nuts. I recommend getting a second key and leaving it at home. Sometimes they grow legs and walk away.

They aren't meant to be impacted on but I've seen people do it before.
