They are selling the gorilla 73138JBC mag style black lug nuts for our cars now individually. They used to only only sell a bag of 50 for $250, but now offer any quantity at $5.97 each. I ordered 20 for $119 (no shipping and no tax) and received them in less than a week. Best part is I received a bag of 25 for that price - YRMV.

I was hoping they would be a black chrome finish, but they are actually more of a satin black paint finish. It does seem to be durable, however, as I removed one after installing and it withstood the effects of a torque wrench, something my painted factory lugs couldn't do.

I just went to purchase a set of 20 of these from Summit, and they want $450+ for shipping! Three times the cost of the nuts! They can't be serious!
So I cancelled the order.
Maybe someone else can buy a set for me with cheap shipping and I will pay them back plus extra for the trouble?

Holy crap, what did you request 4 hour delivery or something?

Guessing you don't get free same day Amazon delivery down there either, huh?

I emailed Summit about the ridiculous shipping cost and they replied with:
"The shipping weight will be adjusted. It will take 2-3 days to updated on the web.".
So they realise something is wrong (my guess is the shipping calculator is working on 20 nuts x 20 times) and are fixing it.
No problem for US members though, free shipping for them!

Do these lug nuts fit the 20 inch wheels and how do they compare to the Dorman ones also sold by Summit?

Get these. Waaaay better than the Gorilla and other nuts from China.
Like a 100 times better. Dont forget hardened steel cannot be plated. So when you see these plated and anodized nuts, You should be running the other way. Also they add unsprung weight.
