Stock lug nut - chrome cap issue

[Trick.Raptor]

Has anyone purchased black Gorilla locks (76604NBC I think are the correct ones) to go with the Gorilla lug nuts. Not for off-road runs of course.

My tire guy hooked me up with the locks (76601NBC - 14X2) when I bought the lugs. Total bill was $86 ($55 for lugs, $24.99 for locks + tax)

I never had locks before... why would you not want to use them on off-road runs?

Figured it would be easier to change flats with regular lugs nuts then locking ones if you are in lots of mud and grime. I could be wrong, never tried to change any muddy wheels, usually just snow and ice. Lol

How do the black lugs hold up to repeated use as far as scratches ect? ---

Hate to bump a 6 month old thread, but do you have pictures of the lugs w/ the locking lugs? Curious to how they look. Is it a noticeable difference?

Here are a couple shots of the 76601NBC I just put on Monday. The other lugs are crappy, and already rusting Protech Splined Lug nuts that came with the Methods when I bought them. Eventually going to replace them with Gorilla lug nuts as well.
