Fits 5th Gen Camaro but much thinner than nuts OEM

I bought these for my 2011 Camaro SS. The equipment corresponds to the car, but the look doesn't suit me at all. The optical part of the nut is too thin for this arrangement. Gorilla needs to make a beefy lock nut for beefy wheels. The photo shows a gorilla mounted on the steering wheel. It only took me once to realize that I didn't want this look. I'll probably return them - and I'm not one of those buyers who returns things because I've changed my mind about the 'style' of these things.

Pros
  • Wheel Locks
Cons
  • Retrofit

Works well! Looks good!

I bought these for my 1996 Corvette as they can be used with both the original wheels and my new Z06 replica wheels, eliminating the need to close the lugs in the event of a wheel change switch. I chose these as I always thought that matching lug nuts looked better and offered more security than a mismatched lock per wheel. As this 6 bolt wheel kit comes with 24 matching nuts it offers four spares for in the event of damage or loss when using 5-hole wheels. My kit is in its second winter season

The price is a bit high but

Price wise they aren't on the same quantity and value scale as the 5 stud versions but I think pay by play or bid/offer. Funny story, contacted Gorilla to get the correct part number or to see if I could get 2 sets using the same key direct from them. I have received confirmation that 71544N is the correct style for the 2021 Ford Expedition. Asked if they have a 6 hole version of the kit. The rep said no and I'm guessing he was just browsing the website. I thought let me google 71644N; Click on

Exactly what I was looking for

They look great on my Dodge Magnum 07 (polished 18" wheels). This is because the spare wheel wrench does not fit. Yes, this could be caused by service centers using incorrectly sized heads, or certain head designs applying pressure in the wrong place, but I shouldn't worry about that. This gorilla nut set is one piece so it won't warp. The wrench is long and fits completely on the nut so there's a good chance the service tech will accidentally scratch my rims or new nuts from the dealer are $5…

Pros
  • Wheel accessories and parts
Cons
  • Slightly dented
