Don't ever forget, BLACK LUGS MATTER!!

You are god dam right.

I know I posted on another Black lug nuts thread and will share the same advice here;

Regardless if which Black lugs you get, never use an impact wrench/gun on them. They will get scratched from the impact slap and as soon as they get wet they will begin to rust and look like crap. Hand tighten/loosen only.

100% Hand tools only.

I do believe that impact guns bash the hell out of the Ford oem lug nuts too. May not be why they swell but causes stress on that ****** 2 piece design.

I noticed my front lug nuts, which were removed by the dealer for warranty work, have marks from the impact socket.

So what do you do when you bring it to the dealer for warranty work?

Judicious use of an impact wrench when accompanied by these will not mar your lugs nor your balls.
