Looking for simple replacements, don't need/want spline, Titanium....simple tire change includes plenty of time wasted getting the socket off lugnut...
You can see the "dents" in the stock nuts where socket was...

Thanks...

Was there supposed to be a pic?
Sorry about that, no pics just saying if you remove yours there will be dents from the socket....The OEM nuts have a thin chrome sheetmetal formed over the actual steel nut and this sheetmetal is soft and can actually swell from trapped rust in 4 season states...

I have the same issue but find it hard to spend 100 bucks on gorillas lol but that seems to be the trend.

I am running a locking type like gorilla but I got them off eBay for $50 as a set for super duty so i have 8 extra lugs and they have been great.
