FZJ-80 Wheels Back From Powder Coater

Just got wheels back from the powder coater, took them like 2 weeks to get them done, and it looks great. Going to put my current tires on them now, BFG AT KO 265/75/16, but can't do that until i find black lug nuts that will work for these wheels. Auto parts store wants $4.95 each X 24 lug nuts = $118.80 = hole in my pocket. does anyone know where i can find some lug nuts for less than 4.95 each? Going to bump up to 285/75/16 in summertime, gotta save up some money.

Mike

Wheels where $260 total shipped, powder coating was $150 total. Powder coating made the wheels look brand new, so basically for new wheels it was only $410. Not bad IMO.

I thought Webshots didn't allow direct linking? That might be your problem...

I bought my lug nuts at https://www.rockauto.com/

This is a pic of Dorman part # 611169:



You may have to search different years, as they did not list black for my 99, but did for my 93.

They are $2.36/ea and are sold in boxes of 10.
