OEM 20" wheels. Lug nut/center cap problem
Hi,
I just picked up a set of the OEM 20" wheels for my 2005 Lariat Scab. I previously had aftermarket 22's but the chrome and tires went bad. I had aftermarket lug nuts on those wheels and then I installed the OEM wheels and now cannot get the stock chrome center caps to mount. They arent broke, I just dont think they fit my lug nuts.
Can anyone with this style of wheel/center cap snap a pic of what the stock lug nuts look like? Does anyone know if I can buy a set?
Thanks to all that can help.

Did your aftermarket wheels use the smaller and longer type? I know mine do and they won't work with my stock 18" FX wheels.
Here are the factory lugs in different finishes if you want to get those....

The stock lug nuts on the 20 inch OEM wheels on my '06 FX4 are regular lug nuts - nothing fancy as they're hidden under the wheel's center cap. I forget their size - maybe 17mm. I bought a set of wheel locks but they won't fit under the center cap but the lug nuts are torqued on the wheels so tight I doubt anyone could steal the wheels anyway. ![Think](https://www.f150online.com/forums/images/smilies/smiley-think005.gif)
