Aftermarket lugs?

So i just ordered a set of Level 8 Mk6s from Discount Tire and i opted out of their wheel installation kit which consists of chrome lug nuts, I wanted black with my new gunmetal wheels. Of all things I'm having a hard time finding aftermarket lugs in black that I feel good about ordering. Most sites call for 20 lug nuts in a kit (including wheel locks) and we need 24. What are you guys using? can someone point me in the right direction please?

I've been a fan of MaGard Spline Drive lugs. Better quality than any other lugs I've tried....and I've had a bunch over the years.

When I got my wheels from Discount Tire, I requested black lugs and they accomodated.

Wish I'd have though about that. I just ordered them from Wheeler's and now I'm waiting to see when they'll get here. The wheels will be here Monday so I hope the lugs will be around the same time.

The gorilla nuts are worth the wait. Aftermarket wheels are much thicker then OEM, so the normal nuts that discount will sell you don't get many threads on the stud and can come loose. The gorilla ETs fit inside the wheel and are much more secure. I have ordered them a couple times from wheelers and it only took a few days in the mail.
