Aftermarket Lug Nuts... Really that expensive?

fnDan · Nov 25, 2013

I picked up some rims for my avalanche and found out I can't get a socket on the stock lug nuts. My nuts are too big!
I phoned around and found out aftermarket nuts are $90 and up plus the key. Seems crazy to me considering the rims have covers so I'm not looking for pretty nuts.

Just go around to all your local KalTires and ask if they have extra lug nuts, they usually give one or two away for free, lol just gotta make a few trips.

Half the battle was trying to figure what I needed and what they're called.
Finally figured out I needed 14x1.5 Open End Spline lug nuts. I knew the stock ones were 14x1.5 but that was the easy part. Did a search on Ebay and ordered a set for $47 with a key from Dallas.
It's too bad it costs the local guys $50 to import these.
