After the OEM lug nuts on my Magnum got rounded off by Goodyear I got these as recommended on LXForums.com. The only potential issues are: 1. the conical contact surface is slightly smaller in diameter than the OEM nuts causing concern for the proper clamping force and 2. I will need to have second socket wench in the car since these are one size smaller than the OEM nuts...not a problem if corrected before the next flat!

I own a 2005 Dodge Magnum and the lug nuts that come standard are two-piece construction. On many occasions the outer skin separates from the actual nut making it very difficult to remove - and also requiring you to carry multiple sockets. Dodge charges around 8-9 bucks per nut and that quickly adds up. I bought these replacement nuts because it says right in the description that they are one-piece construction*. They're not. I replaced the nuts on my front wheels and two of these nuts came apart. I use hand tools, not power equipment, so it's not related to mishandling.

* - I see that the product description is the same for all Gorilla lug nuts so even though it says, "Also comes with a one piece construction for lasting durability and are individually hand polished for a beautiful finish.", in the review, that doesn't mean that THESE nuts are one-piece construction. The description is a little misleading I think.

I just ordered these - Gorilla Automotive 61147 Acorn Bulge Seat Lifetime Lug Nuts (14mm x 1.50" Thread Size). They have one review by another Magnum owner so I am sure I am getting a good part this time.

I purchased 32 S/S lugnuts which I recived. This was the size recomended to me for the truck that I own. The thread size was correct but the lenth was too short. I took pictures, comparing the ones I bought and the ones I had. I also sent a letter back explaining to please exchange them for the right size . BUT I guess the people reciveing products back either don't care or can't read. Because my account was credited with no response! I am sure you have the product I need and they could have been shipped back without loosing a sale. The other problem I have there is no phone # that a buyer can talk to a real person. This is not good business!
