Can someone recommend a one-piece solid lug nut that will fit OEM wheels for my 2006 Charger RT? I am sick of having to replace broken two-piece OEM lug nuts every year when I change over to my summer wheels. Thanks in advance for the help.

Yeah Gorilla all the way, the stock lugs are crap because they have a cap on them (two piece) and eventually there will be some corrosion or water freeze/thaw that will screw them up and they will spin.

I use 91147 stay away from the "lifetime" ones that they sell that are not a one piece, you want the solid ones. You can get chrome or black and I think they even sell a locking kit too. You want the acorn bulge ones 14 MM x 1.5 inches thread size.

I read somewhere that they're now making a stock looking one piece unit but I don't recall the model number. If looking stock is important to you then check those out.

Oh word to the wise, if you do go with the ones I use the 91147 you might want to pick up a 13/16 socket and keep a wrench in the trunk that's what I do, the stock lug wrench won't work.

Amazon sells the 91147 in chrome for only like 6 or 7 bucks per 4 pack you can order 5 packs and get free shipping Smile

Gorilla sells the lug wrench adapter too. I just picked up some of their open end nuts and a wrench adapter.

Probably an adapter for lug wrench, because lug wrench doesnt always fit lug nuts. Just my guess

is it a double ended socket? I use a 21mm socket for my everyday lug nuts, and the open end one I have for the cobra wheels are 19mm. So I need a 21mm socket, 19mm socket and a breaker bar.

It's a Gorilla lug wrench adapter. It has a square end 1/2" and a 13/16" socket end. I could just use a chrome 13/16" thin wall socket in 1/2" drive also. My Bogart race wheels are tricked out and a regular socket is too tight.
