The Lug Nuts are fine! It's the size of the metal flake they used in the paint for 2014 line that makes me wonder WTH they were thinking.

I would think that starting a thread about it would only make it worse, you know like a little fire on a flame.

The aftermarket is full of lug nuts.........but you're right the 2014's could've been better. Clearly not a well thought out design.

'14 lugnuts suck...What were they thinking? Don't like them at all. I'm keeping mine, they are better in every way.

They're the same lug nuts from a 90's Honda Prelude! Completely unacceptable, GM.....

Why doesn't Chevrolet make a retrofit kit for the 2014 lug nuts so us poor pre-2014 owners can enjoy them too !
