When I ordered my limited night edition, I assumed that the lug nuts would be black as well. Well I found out that they aren't, and I didn't even see this as an option when ordering. Also the wheel lock isn't black. Just fyi for anyone else who ordered...

Does anyone know if the Mopar black lug nuts work for 2022? I would assume yes. Has anyone ordered these before or are they any good? Does the black come off of them? It's for a 2500 limited diesel.
Here's the link to the Mopar part: Black lug nuts

I think they fit, but you’d need 8 of those kits. No way I’m dropping over $500 for lug nuts.

I’ve seen black lug nut caps on Amazon, someone here bought some and said they fit well.

Ordered them from parts. should run $400 or so for all 4 wheels. Pricey but worthwhile for peace of mind

Yikes, yea I didn't realize there were only 4 in the pack, I figured that was cost for each wheel... So yes that's crazy. Might try the caps first and see if that settles my OCD... Gotta find a black wheel lock though

I doubt the 5 packs for Jeeps would fit - most of those used to be 1/2-20 threads - havent had any reason to think they would have changed. 2500/3500 are larger - mostly 14mm if I recall correctly
Click to expand...
It appears some if not all Jeeps changed to 14mm x1.5 in 2018 - guess I am lost in the pre-2018 time frame and I believe Ram HD are 14mm x1.5 so probably interchangeable - but look at McGard or Gorilla for better pricing including locks.

I used the same McGard wheel locks (14mmx1.5) on my 2020 Grand Cherokee and my 2019 Ram 3500 SRW HO. I have used these same wheel locks on multiple Ram trucks 2500 and 1500's and my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. They are the same size lug nuts.

Please check thread size - if 5 bolt they are most likely 1/2-20 thread vs larger thread on HD

Came in quantity of 4. Parts verified with my VIN these would fit. If not then they will return and re order the correct ones.
 
I purchased these to get rid of the chrome ones. Happy so far and no issues to date.

I bought black plastic caps to put over mine, super cheap and looks exactly like black lugs. I couldn’t bring myself to spend that much buying the black lugs. I’m pretty happy with them. None have ever fallen off in over a year and a half of use.

From the description:

*These lug nuts have a taper/shoulder for aftermarket wheels. They are not designed for factory wheels.

Ah, didn't notice that. They were an addon for my Method Wheel purchase so makes sense.
 
For anyone looking for black lugs for stock wheels the McGards are top knotch. The part # for these is 64074, I ordered some last week off amazon for $20 per pack of 4 (need 8 packagaes). However, I just looked them up and they are now 25 per pack.

They are not as big as the OEM lugs but they fit the wheels perfectly. I ran them down with an impact (slowly) and gave them a couple of dugga duggas before torqueing them. They took the impact like a champ and there are no marks at all. The DP accesory lugs are a tad cheaper but I bet they would rust in Ohio. The McGards are pricey but I strongly believe these will hold up well over time. This really makes the wheel look a lot better, everytime I walked past the truck the crhome lugs always stood out.

Please post how these work out...
 
So the Gorilla Lug Nuts #66148BDX came in today but they are not as the website photo shows. They are just another acorn top. Not bothering to add a pic of them... acorn top is an acorn top and we all know what that looks like. I had tried the CJC Off Road and they were a tall acorn; at least these Gorilla lugs are a shorter acorn. Looks like they are high quality but I went ahead and ordered the Driven Products lugs via
