Lug Nut Help!

I have a 1997 F-150 and I need to find a set of lug nuts. I have a stock for wheel that accepts the 12 x 1.75 lug, but what I need is the chrome type lug nut with the attached washer that flat and not conical. I have a set of "No Boundries" 17 x 8 wheels from a 2001 Explorer, but can seem to locate chrome lugs with the flat washer that size. If anyone knows where I might be able to find the right nut I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Ford Racing has the lug nuts for 12.95 a set of 5, if you buy them from a non stocking dealer you will pay 6.95 a lug nut. Fairway Ford has them for 11.50 plus shipping.(http://www.go2fairway.com/parts/sppa...s/tsparts.html

No luck. They don't have anything that will work. Any other places I can look?

Thanks

How about the Lightning wheel nuts. They're chrome with the attached washer and should fit your stock bolts.

I've looked into that angle, but can't seem to find any dealership that has the 99 lugs in stock to see if they will work. Do you know for a fact the 99 has the washer type chrome lug? Besides that they are $7.50 each. I'm willing to pay that, but can't get an answer for the parts department to find out if the 99 is that design. Let me know if you have any info on the 99 lug.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the info. AFSWheel only has the conical type for the 97-99 to fit their generic wheel for both 12mm and 14mm. All the wheels they sell for the L fit both sizes. I found a set a karkraft for a pretty good price. A lot better than the dealer's $7.50-$9.00 per lug. What a rip.

Thanks again.
