Black Steel Lug Nuts
 
I am looking for some black lug nuts for my FR-S. For now, I have stock wheels. I am looking for steel lugs so that I don't have to worry about aluminum lugs fusing to the steel studs. Any suggestions?

I got some gorilla lugs off amazon. Steel and black. They are closed end if that matters for your setup.

I am looking for black, closed ended, stainless steel. Do you have a link for the ones you got?

I actually bought these for another car a couple years ago, but their working just fine on my BRZ

These look great. I had looked at these before but the description doesn't say that they're steel. Thanks for the help!

Lug nuts will usually be steel, but not stainless steel. Stainless is not hard/strong enough. But most good lug nuts will be coated or plated in something so they will not rust.

Unless the description says they are aluminum (or, even rarer, titanium), all lug nuts that I know of are steel.

We stock several kinds of steel, black lug nuts, including Gorilla, Muteki (Super Tuner and the heavier-duty SR35), and McGard SplineDrive.
