Default Gorilla Lugs?

http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...oducts_id=1061

Made from the highest quality materials available with extreme quality control standards included in every step of the manufacturing process, Gorilla lug nuts are made to exceed other brands in quality and longevity. These specific lug nuts feature an Acorn Bulge seat that ensures a snug fit and have a 3/4" hex head with a capped top. This set comes with four lug nuts having a 12mm x 1.50 thread pitch.

what is with this last part? 4 of the lugs have a different thread pattern? anyone have these, how does the finish hold up to sockets. i was looking to pick up a set of these for my new black zr1's thanks for the help!

they come in sets of four.... you get four lugs for that price. that is the correct thread for stock lugs. im thinking this is the same lugs that jegs sells, and if so, in not impressed with the ss/t long shank ones. the washers dont have enough clearance and stick on the lug. they end up gulling the hell out of your wheels(ie. weld wheels or any that use long shank and washers)

the link i posted says it comes in a set of 20 for 19.99...but what i am confused about is why it says "This set comes with four lug nuts having a 12mm x 1.50 thread pitch." so are the other 16 different? lol

It looks like they copy and pasted the write up for a set of 4 and are sending 5 packs to make the total of 20.Call and ask.
