2021 1LE Black Lug Nuts

Looking for a vendor to replace stock lug nuts on 2021 1LE rims. A buddy of mine ordered a set from GM in black. They were taller and stuck out past the face of the rims and did not look good. Recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

I would use the McGard lug nuts too. Never had any problems with them before. Have a set on my 2005 Silverado with 20 inch BBS wheels.

Can / Should you race when using aftermarket lug nuts?

I'd stay far away from Aluminum lug nuts, otherwise major brands like McGard should be fine. Probably any steel lug nut is fine, but I haven't tested them so IDK.

Ditto on staying away from aluminum. I personally have been using Gorilla's forged steel lug nuts on track with no issues, but as Dave mentioned any brand-name steel one will likely be OK.

Gorilla black locking lug nuts. they're hardened steel and each nut requires the key so they're secure.

Email their customer service and they will tell you exactly which ones work for your Camaro.

These are not Al. And they are one piece unlike OEM garbage on most all cars.

This is the GM part number of the lug nut kit on my 2021 1LE. In my opinion they fit nicely.
