Default open ended lug nuts

Okay so I have some cheap open ended lugs on my 02 camaro but they are too soft of a metal and 2 have stripped on me. What are some good quality open ended lug nuts?

don't have a suggestion on a particular lug nut but how're you stripping them that easily? you don't have to superman tighten them. i've got the stock lug nuts and use an impact on them carefully and never had one strip.

No idea to be honest. I've never had a lug strip on me before.

Not good, on my old Camaro I had a lug nut that wouldn't come off so they had to break the whole bolt piece, so one wheel had only four lug nuts like a ghetto *** lol.

I bought a kit specifically made to get lugs off that were rounded so that's not the issue for me

Search for this part number on google shopping, 20033SD. I got a set for all 4 corners for 28 shipped, you just have to find the right place. Feel free to PM me.

Most likely the ones you stripped were made from aluminum, they have the tendency to do that. Some like the aluminum because of the reduced weight however its gain is minimal to none for any of us and the added security of steel lugs is far worth it. This is another reason the dutinsss never stripped a stock, it is a steel lug. The part number above is steel lug as well.
