Chrome lug nuts

Hello, I did a search and did not find an answer. I have a 2011 with 17" chrome rims. I have had the HHR for about 2 months and love it. Some of the chrome lug nuts are missing the chrome caps that go over the nuts. The lug on my Town & country do the same thing. With the caps on you use a 19mm socket and a 18mm if the caps come off. Does anyone make lug nuts that do not have the chrome cap just a completely chrome plated lug nut. Do you know where I can buy a set. Thanks Lynn

Try NAPA or other parts stores. Take one with you.

The lug nuts are 12 X 1.5

Not a bad price, if you don't use an impact gun on them they last nicely!

The key is the M12X1.5 spec, any bolt with those specs should work.

Chrome plating won't last any longer than the caps when using impact tools.

I think you may be able to get just the caps at larger parts places.
