It's amazing what a little change can bring.
Looks so much better with these Gorilla Lugs.
The new lugs stick out about a 1/4 inch more but are fine to me.
Found the lugs on Ebay for 65.00

I recently bought a set for my truck to run with my summer wheels. Yours look good!

Did the same to mine and think it is a huge improvement. Did you torque the the manufacture recommend torque of 150 lb.ft?? Seems high to me but I followed their recommendations.

At first I did 90lbs per Gorilla lug stats, but then seen Ford call for 150.
So I went with 140 and rechecked a day later.

Waiting for lug nuts to come in I hope mine looks as good as yours :)
ST center caps got them on Amazon !!
If you get some let me know I’ll show you how to remove the old ones without damaging your wheels !!
