I just researched this the other day gorilla seems to be the value leader between a quality product and a reasonable price. Justforjeeps.com had a good price with free shipping and no sales tax. I just picked up the black acorn style ones, they should arrive early next week. Will take photos when they get here if you want.

just got mine today.. you can tell by finish and weight it’s a quality product

They do not look right. Compare the cone angle and cone diameter to the correct lug nut. The cone seems too small and of course the website gives no specs in the "spec" link.

I used these because the stock lugs or similar width won't fit many aftermarket wheels. They are beginning to show a little rust after 2 years so they will need to be replaced eventually but the price is right.

Looks great! It's funny, if you look at the Mopar website for ordering these wheels "aftermarket," it shows them with black lugs. I'll definitely go this route. I'll probably go with the white letters facing in as well, although I like the look of them out, as well. I'd love to see a pic from someone who has done both... all black.

So, the Gorilla ones are $150! but you can get others for about $30? Worth the 5X price? Although, I did see that sale on justforjeeps.com and that is a great discount.

Expensive:

Cheap (I know these aren't locking, but I think they make those in a cheaper version, too):

The gorilla are one piece lugs so no breakage. Also when holding them you can tell a huge difference in quality. Installed mine day one. The come in black and chrome.

Thanks to the recommendation of @Rhinebeck01 (and others here), I've just purchased a set of these:

I couldn't resist at the current sale price.

I can't wait to get rid of the stock chrome lugs on my black Sport Altitude wheels. I have my impact and torque wrenches ready to go.
