How do ya like the ford "acorn" lugnuts ???

On my trucks the chrome always comes off of the lug nut revealing the chitty lugnut that actually is under there, then i gitta dig the chrome shell outa the lug wrench and put it back on the lug nut.... where "besides ford" can I get the ugly '70's style lugnut that aint shiny at all ? junkyard only ???

Any auto parts have the old open type lug nuts . Take on in to compare tapper . As for the stock ones clean and use silicon or jb weld to hold in place . It works for me.
