    For the guys that have bought a set, what lug nuts & wheel locks are yall using?

    Im looking for black lug nuts and wheel locks. I found some Gorilla E-T black chrome lugs but cant find any black locks. Will those E-T lugs work w/ the new wheels?

    Gorilla E-T lug nuts are NOT necessary for these wheels. FN Wheels did a lot of research with the Toyota trucks, wheels, studs, and lug nuts. The BFD lug holes are drilled deeper to accommodate the short wheel studs of Toyota Trucks. There is plenty of stud thread exposed to use regular cone seat lug nuts, such as Gorilla acorn lug nuts or Gorilla small diameter lug nuts as shown in the link you posted. Let me know if you have any other questions or need any further clarification at all. I am happy to help.

    I ended up ordering the wheels from Dustin this afternoon. You guys are awesome, best customer service Ive ever seen! I got off of the phone with Dustin at 6:15pm central time, I had a receipt at 6:15pm and received a email from FedEx at 6:30pm saying they had already picked up the wheels and they'll be delivered this Friday.

    15mins from payment to FedEx picking them up....man yall are faster than Amazon LOL. Thanks again, I cant wait to get the wheels!

    I went with Nitto terras. You might want to try this. Go to tirecrawler, find your tires and have DT price match. :)

    I dont have a Taco but here are the BFD wheels I got yesterday mounted on a Lexus GX470.

    Sorry for the glare, the sun was out and the paint looks washed out. I tried to touch it up but who cares, this is about the wheels and tires.

    RCC do you mind telling me if you went with option 1 vs. 2 (w/offset) for your GX, assuming you got your wheels from FNWheels.com?

    Thanks

    Option 1 is the way to go for a Lexus GX. I sent you a PM as well.

    This is correct. Thank you for helping out with the answer. :)
