Need to buy new lug nuts, one mine are all crappy and two will be getting rims powder coated black so want black lug nuts. What size should I be looking for? I did a Google search and got mixed answers. Also anyone recommend where to buy them? Possibly looking to get 4 ( 1 for each rim ) lock nut just for personal preference.

Those are a joke. One socket slightly bigger than the the lock and a hammer gets it off.

JPT are you referring to lock lug nuts or the lug nuts that were posted? If referring to lock lug nuts never knew it was that easy to get them off! What a joke of protection

Locking lug nuts. After I learned about that, I never used locking lug nuts again.

Yea neither am I now lol. On my old car (wasn't old I just refer it as old since I don't own it anymore) it never had them, when I bought the ram it came with it so I figure what the hell might as well. But thanks for that info I'll just be buying the lug nuts posted earlier and will be good to go!

I have an '02... Don't care much for Locking nuts...

In my area I am not concerned (Most of the neighbours don't even lock their front doors...) and worst case I can get a full set of original 17" RAM Mags and used tires for under 500$ so I am not giving myself the hassle of Locking lugs.

However, you can find some on the ezaccesory site and the have "Tuner" lugs which seem to be a little different than locking nuts and could be an option.
