And I will pay that person 30 smack-a-roos.

Chris was right. I am sad. They do not stock them anymore and no info on the manufacturer. Havent had them in over a year.

No, the hard part is the type of lug nuts. those have the 1/2 x 20 closed end acorn style with a 1/4 shank on the end. I need the type that has the shank or sleeve on the end; the part that goes into the wheel.

I have locking nuts, btw, just need 16 of the ones with the shank.

since this is about lug nuts i want to know if anyone has ever tried or see n these lug nuts with a very unique design to them to get rid of theft. Like a regular lugnut the area you would slip the special socket over is on the outside. I just wondered. And if not anyone use anti teft nuts? People spend a lot on rims (the most expensive rim set is $250,000) and i think they dont want them stolen. So anti theft lug nuts, great, good, or bad?

Are you speaking about Lug locks? They are very common and nice to have. There are many different style of locking lugs. Some with a key that goes over the outside, some with a key that goes on the inside. If people are paranoide sometimes they will add more than 1 set of locks per wheel.

I was kidding. I am glad you are able to have safe lug nuts on my truck. i would have been scared to drive if i were you. I have my spacers now and as tempting as it is to put them on, I am going to wait.

As for my truck, not even close to being done. Once the lowering kit goes in and i get the spacers and lug nuts on, I am going to get the lights for front and rear, tint the windows and then start preparing for the stereo. I would like to remove my rear bumper, but need it to pull my friends boat. I might get a new front bumper or just have the lower plastic portion of mine painted to match the truck. not sure. After i get that stuff, not sure what I am going to do. heh.

I would replace every lug nut with a chrome locking nut (i didn't know what they were called) i wouldnt want a $500-$2000 set of rims in someones local pawn.
