    Has anyone blacked out their lug nuts? I have black rims and would like to have the entire exterior of my truck blacked out. I don’t want to buy the wrong lugs and have them chip or rust. Any brand or type I should go with?

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    I've had true Gorilla made black lugs on my Tacoma and some cheap clone made by West Coast Accessory on my Hyundai Tucson both bought from America's Tire. The Gorilla held up fine but eventually the spline you can see the wear from removing the lugs to rotate the tires and surface rust forming on the exposed spline but the West Coast Accessory couldn't even make it past a few drive in car wash car soap/detergent and wore off the black without even touching the lugs since they were installed and the end that you can see when you look at the wheels just turned silver. I ended up using to black nail polish to touch it up. If you can find Gorilla, go that route.
