I agree, the gorilla website is awful. Let me enter my vehicle and show me all my options.

My '13 had the same exact wheels (actually, it was your trucks twin, black STX xcab). I used part number
61108CXL. Found them on eBay for around 100 total

Discount Tire requested that I replace the lug nuts on my 2013 F-150 STX 4x4 a couple years ago. Think they are tired of trying to get the factory ones off. They made available some good replacements and they were only about $30 total for all four wheels. Thought at the time, some kind of up-sell but went ahead and did it. That was before I read anything about this issue. The lug nuts they put on look good and so far no issues.

Yea, I've seen you on the forum for a while and noticed you have (had) the same truck. Congratulations on the new one!

Thx for the part number. I'm going to get a set.

Take care!

Discount Tire does a great job.. They are knowledgeable, friendly and keep to the appointment you make, They have Road Force balancing equipment too.
