I have a Gorilla set that's holding up fairly well

I've heard a lot of recommendations for McGard as well

Do you have black or chrome?……. A few people have said that black ones rust up fast and the chrome ones last longer. I’m good either way.

Black.

No rust at all but I do live in CA and we aren’t prone to it. The black is wearing from splines a bit - but you can’t see it in the recessed wells on my KMCs. I pulled a couple so you can see the condition. 80k+ miles

I have black Gorilla lugs on my Raptor. Supposed to be one of the best sets to use.

Plus ONE (to @Brian_B ) - I'm also using the Gorilla brand (they have a 27-piece all-black set at CJ Pony Parts) - they are holding up great.

I chose a non-locking spline drive as more of a deterrence than secure. A determined individual can unscrew any kind of lug nuts pretty quickly. I'm just slowing down the casual thief with a lug wrench.
