BLACK LUG NUT UPGRADE

[bobter3]

how many points was that? I was hoping to use points for my first oil change later..

I forget the exact amount but it is 200 points for every dollar. I had over 150K to use so got them and stocked up on filters, oil and blades. Still have over 50K left and ordered the black badges

Nice! I only have 40k points with new car purchase. How did you accumulate so many?

Do the McGard caps stay on the lock lug nuts?

McGard's are one piece lug nuts, no caps.

The silicone/plastic caps that come with the locking lugs. Are they just meant to be thrown away?
Thanks

Sorry, I missed the locking lug part, I don't know.

You can, I put mine back on. they keep debris from building up in the slot that the key engages.

Are the ford performance lugs solid or just a hollow trim over the nut??

 

[I Bleed Ford Blue]

They are hollow capped nuts just like the stockers, only black.

This is just for future reference. Both of these lug nuts are Gorilla lug nuts, both are 14x1.5, and both take a 21mm socket, they also both have the same taper on the shoulder. One is a large bulge nut and one is what I call a peanut lug nut. Anyway... probably more than anyone wanted to know. Our Exploders with factory wheels take the larger lug nut.
