    Hey guys first time posting here. Just purchased my second Tacoma 2018 SR 4x4. I found a set of wheels for a steal off a 2018 TRD and when going to get the mounted and balanced I was told I need a different lug nut, that the hex nuts off my steel wheels will not work. I couldn’t find anything in the search. Any ideas or quality after market that is below dealer prices? Thanks and here is a pic of the wheels.

    12mmx1.5 is the size you need and here is a picture of the stock lug take offs:

    Amazon and Ebay have a lot from which to choose.

    Awesome thank you, do the gorillas need to be Toyota specific like in your picture?

    Correction is there a correct name for the nuts that recess into the wheel as apposed to acorn style lug nuts?

    I’m unable to specifically answer that question but as there are different types of 12mmx1.5 lugs used by other manufacturers and many different sizes of lugs in general, if you are ordering online, there are many “ flat seat washer mag style” lugs to choose from which are labeled for use on Toyota or Lexus vehicles.E7104F7D-D8DE-4B0F-9665-9E6D7EC97788.jpg
