    I got these wheels for my 2010 tacoma and now I need to get a new set of 24 black lug nuts. I already tried getting some but they didn't fit right. Sooo I need some advice. A link would be helpful. Thanks

    Dealership only has chrome. I don't really trust ebay for quality hardware. Don't wanna deal with paint chipping or rust. I know gorilla is a good brand but can't seem to find a set of 24 that'll work.

    No, but they look identical. I just need to get some body work done on my truck and a new paint job. Gonna get matte red to match the TRD in the wheels. Thank you for the reply DoorDing. Exactly what I needed

    I have the same wheels and used the stock chrome lugs. I think they look great. Post pics when you get your black lugs please. I'd like to see the difference

    I was wanting to do the same thing. But someone said the black ones get beat up after you put an impact to them a couple times. Does anyone know if these Gorillas won't do that? I would love to get black one. Here's a pic of mine just because I'm proud...ha

    I've had gorillas from wheelers for about 4 years and they look fine. Still black and not faded

    Using Gorilla black lugs from Wheelers.
    Also black Wheel Mate brand TPMS stem covers.
    Good luck.

    That's pretty impressive. Good looking setup , also. I'm gonna try to remember this when I change wheels/tires.

    Taco lug nuts on OEM alum wheels are Toyota specific. Whichever lug brand you get, make sure they are Toyota OEM specs. OEM Toyota 12mm X 1.5 alum wheel lugs use a mag style lug nut with a shank diameter of .725", not the more common .685". I suspect the nice looking TRD alum wheels use the same .725" lugs. Double check to make sure.

Installed new hood with "hood-scoop". Installed Predator Side Steps. Replaced front chrome grill with customized color matched (Desert Sand Mica) grill with added TOYOTA lettering (also in matched color), installed and secured tailgate anti-theft devices. Also installed a new external TPMS monitor for all 4 tires.
    Cool looking tires and wheels/rims.

    Specifically, as for black lug nuts try either one of the following places (and keep 'preventive thef ' in mind-Good Luck!):

    (I have this style of lug nuts on my wheels/rims, but in crome. When I purchased my wheels/rims from Discount Tire, some years back, they came along as part of the set. Really like the fact that they need a special type of grooved socket to remove them)
