Cheap version of a once good product

I have been a long time fan of McGard products and have never had a problem. I had to force the lock nuts loose, which destroyed them. Comparing this faulty socket to another old one I have on another car, I noticed that the old one is much heavier forged, while the new one is made of light-weight white metal. I have since ordered another set from Revain, but from a competitor who not only was cheaper but also used a heavy forged head. Having always had McGard nuts they are no longer worth…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

McGard SplineDrive lugs indicate compatibility with my model year Dodge Ram. The McGard tabs are too narrow to hold the center cap on my factory bikes so I couldn't use the full set of locking lugs and hold the center cap in place. This was disappointing as the kits are designed to replace the entire cleat.

Best!: Ring Nuts & Accessories

McGard is the best! This set is amazing and surpasses anything I have used. The Gorilla Tabs are awful, so if you're looking to pick one, there's really nothing to compare it to. McGard is much better and if you like wheel studs choose this set from other brands. I removed three studs with lug nuts and had no problem with the McGard lug nuts. I can only warmly recommend them and I am very satisfied!
