Lug Nuts

[Britcarlvr]

Have 2008 Limited w/18" stock wheels. Of course the "bling" over the lugs is screwed. The stock nuts have a large bulge, but when I purchased a complete set from Amazon (Gorillas, all locks) they came with a smaller bulge. These nuts were said to be an exact fit. Will there be a problem if used? Why the difference?

For the factory alloy wheels you need the ones with the large bulge.

This is what I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZSDGVGG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have a set that I took off my old expedition, that I'd sell for $20 plus the shipping they were on and off a couple of times. They don't fit the 17 because it has a different thread pitch.

If you are interested I can post pictures.
