Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I looked up that part number and it's only giving me packs of 4. Still don't have my truck but I want these to go with the black wheels and don't know what specs to look for.

Yes. Buy six packs. I didn’t bother with lock nuts.

Use the Ford recommended 150# dry. DO NOT lube the tread! Read the installation of the Gorilla lug nuts.

Google "Oldfart's Low Hanging Swollen nuts". There's a big Gen 2 nut thread. Short version, many people had issues with OEM nuts, some people had issues with Gorrila, zero had issues with McGuard.

Lug nut choice - Gorilla, McGard, something else?
I've finally decided on the wheels I want and now I need to choose some lug nuts. I'm going to get a set of Icon Vector6 wheels and want to put a high quality lug nut on with the new wheels. I'm leaning towards the titanium finish on the wheels but I don't see anything other than chrome or black...

I ended up taking the McGuard wheel locks and tossed them in the trash. I’ve had my lugs for about 18 months and went through 3 of the locking keys. They all end up breaking and I was torquing it to 90ftlbs. The design of the wheel lock key is very weak and I was worried once again they would leave me stranded in Baja. Sorry wheel locks. You’re just not worth the trouble.
