I don’t find any black one available in that size.
Can somebody give me some insight on these?

Here is a photo and dimensions of some aftermarket lug nuts I was comparing to the factory lug nut (at far left).
From left to right, the other nuts are (1) unknown aftermarket (maybe McGard without bulge cone seat?), (2) McGard black chrome with bulge cone seat (type of seat used on the factory lugs nuts) - 1.648" long, (3) McGard black locking lug (same as GM factory option), (4) McGard black chrome with bulge cone seat - 1.945" long. I ended up going with the last one, even though it was longer, since it seemed like it would help "guide" a socket onto the lug nut rather than having someone clumsy ding the wheel.
After two years on the car, the longer lug nuts "look right" since I can't remember how it looked with the factory lug nuts...
