🦍 Gorilla Automotive 61147CX: Chrome Lug Nuts - Factory Style Bulge, 14mm x 1.50 Thread Size (Pack of 4) Review

I ordered these Gorilla Mount Nuts 61147CX based on a dice roll (based on a Revain photo of the actual Mount Nut) that I would get a Gorilla 61148CX to match the cleats I ordered 6 years ago bought. return. I guessed right judging by the part number stamped on the nut. However, the design has indeed changed quite a bit. The dome is slightly more pronounced in the new version of the design. It might not matter to 99.9% of those who read these reviews, but it would help if I had this information.

When I was changing tires a few years ago, a technician suggested that I go to Tesla to have the nuts replaced. I didn't really think anything of it ("It's a pretty new car," I thought, "It doesn't need any new nuts"). Fast forward almost a week before the inspection sticker is due to be put on trying to replace 2 worn tires and the tire people can't get their socket wrench out. Brief History: Tesla nuts come in two parts (Ford did the same and got sued). "put on" and got 20 two-piece nuts from

Relatively expensive but more expensive than a Chrysler genuine product. They look better than the two-piece nuts that failed on my Magnum (warped on the outside and slipped off on the inside). I assume that won't happen with these. The part that comes into contact with the front of the wheel has a very different shape than the original part 61147 (no "CX").

I have changed tires twice on my 2016 Mustang GT. About half of the bearing nut had to be rethreaded onto the tab to remove it from the wrench. I had to hammer some lug nuts onto the factory lug nuts with a smaller head. Ordered Gorilla Automotive lug nuts, 4 locks, (96641DX). The rest of the nuts were Gorilla Automotive (61147CX Chrome) 13/16". Save yourself the headache of trying to change a flat tire at the curb, replace your Ford with factory nuts now.

61147CX tips are better than stock but don't have a lifetime guarantee like the one pack of black 61147BX that came with my order. I ordered 5 sets of chrome 61147CX and received 4 sets and one package. black 61147BCX. Is 61147CX the same quality? They are made in Taiwan and only have 1 year warranty. The black 61147BCX comes with a lifetime warranty. My trade-in period has expired, so I need to order another 4-pack. I need to contact the retailer to get all the details.

This is a great replacement for Dodge/Chrysler eyelets which are cheap nuts with aluminum caps that suck. I took my wheels off 3 times before the stock wheels fell apart. :/ These are solid chrome forged steel tips. The threads go to the end of the eye, making them much more secure. They are slightly taller than standard cleats and have a rounded, flat part at the top. If you want lugs that look exactly like the real thing, get this 66147dx ie. without round spot above. Much cheaper than dealer
