  Has anyone had problems with the 2-piece lug nuts ?  Any solutions ?  Does Dodge have a one-piece nut ?

Riverset,
Oh Dude...  This is a bad subject with me...  I have looked into this and it sucks... 

Any problems with the 2-Piece Lugs Nuts?  You mean like them coming apart?  Yes!  Or do you mean they strip out the Corners too easy?  Yes!  Or do you mean they are just not a quality product what-so-ever?  Yes!!!!

Does Dodge have a 1-Piece Lug Nut?  Only if you want to buy (20) Locking Lug Nuts...  Other than that, no...

Any Solutions?  I have a sweet set of 1-Piece Chrome Lug Nuts, only to find out the Angle at the base of the nut is different than the stock rim, so there is a slight chance they would back off too easily, so they are sitting in my room, waiting for the possible next solution which is...  Get an after-market set of rims, the 1-Piece Lug Nuts will fit them!

But I happen to like the stock look, so I am waiting for all of the Chrome Caps to fall off, about 40% have fallen off now, and then I will have the Stock Lug Nuts, without the Caps, Chromed.  I figure that is the best solution.

Beware!  This is a major issue!  If you get a flat, you won't be able to remove the Lug Nuts without the Caps, as it is a different size!  Seems like Dodge should have given us (2) Lug Nut Wrenches.  One for the Cap and One for the Lug Nut!  LOL!!!

I like it, but I want the concept interior
I like it, but I want the exact concept exterior
Its ok, but the concept was far better
