Default Has anyone used these lug nuts?

Has anyone used these (https://i.imgur.com/zJIKkLB.jpg) lug nuts? They look to be pretty good quality, and it would be nice to not have to worry about screwing up my lug nuts with an impact gun or something and I'm going to have to replace mine soon anyway. Any idea how well they work since they seem to be a little different design? I'm also curious how they actually look on the truck.

I want. Where did you find them.

I hate the factory lugs with those stupid caps. The ones I still have JINGLE.

New OES Genuine Lug Nut Land Rover Discovery 99 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 | eBay

Here you go. A little pricy, but if it means I never have to replace my lug nuts again then well worth the extra $50 or so.

I've also thought about just taking the caps off of the factory nuts, but I feel like they would look ****ty and I don't know what you would coat them with that would stay after being wrenched or impacted.

Just a heads-up that lug nut is ANR4851 and for steel wheels. I don't think they are going to work with aluminum.

Someone needs to make some like the solid lugs that came on the Range rover classics for D2.

I actually bought some solid ones on eBay a few years back for $60 brand new for a set of 20. Wish I would have bought two sets. But they look exactly like the cap ones but are solid. I can't find them anymore anywhere.

They are the bigger stud size fir RRC, Discovery 1, and Defender.

They are great because you can powder coat or chrome them. I have them on my D1.
