What’s everyone’s experience with McGard?
They make the best lug nuts

I have had 2 sets of their black ones “guaranteed” not to chip- I can’t really speak on my Z06 since it’s babied, but my GMC had em on through 2 New England winters without issue

My question is what are the correct size & type exactly? Do we really need the bulge type?

So I’m probably opening myself up... but hear me out.

Colorlugs

They make the simple little rubber caps to go over your stock lug nut. They were recommended to me when when i was trying to find black lug nuts for a Tundra TRDPro... to match its stock black wheels. As i recall, there were not tons of options for its style lug nut. Everything i looked at pretty much got crappy reviews for corrosion, fading, etc.

Not gonna lie... they looked awesome. Now, you have to pop them off when you need to pull a wheel off but they give a special little tool used to help pull them off. Easy to clean, etc.

I’m debating powder coating my 2019 beadlocks black. And if i do, I’ll likely put those on. As cheesy as they sound... they looked really good.

Good to know they’ll hold up in winter. I only have McGards on a summer car.
