Capped Lugs??
Sorry, I really do search for this stuff. site: t4r.org and elsewhere.
Just want to verify. Does a 2021 have the dreaded capped lug nuts/bolts or not?

They sure looked capped but maybe I'm just paranoid.
Got screwed with capped lugs before.

Wanna change them out now so I don't need to worry about my lug nuts.

I wasn't aware this was an issue with the 5th generation.

I don't know if it is or not.
They just look like maybe.

Just want to purge them if it is.

Neither did I… and not just for 5th gen 4runner but for any Toyota.

I am guessing OP had a Ford Truck before… and I have heard that Ford managed to create an issue with capped lug nuts…

You're telepathic.
Last Saturday I traded my F150.

I'll take these 2 comments to heart and plan to spend $100 on something else.

Thanks

Jeep Wranglers also have the capped lugs. Many personal nightmare experiences with them on two different ones. I ended up buying a full new non-capped sets but should have done it the minute I took ownership.

No surprise there… And I am sure for many Jeep “nuts” issue with lug nuts is just another “it is a jeep thing… you wouldn’t understand”…

Does anyone have a Toyota part number for regular lug nuts that we can use to replace the capped ones?

My issues with the cap lugged nuts is its neither a 21mm or 22mm socket! So chances are if you go to Discount or a tire shop for a flat/patch/plug they just ruin them over time.
Protip: Just swap them out for Dorman replacements.
Also, 4Runner lug nuts aren't as long and I haven't run in to the problems I associate with my Ford lugs nuts with
