Default Lug nuts for ProComp 7069 Alloys wheels

I have seen this subject in some threads, but I still can't figure it out. I have some alloy pro comp 7069s in a 5x5 pattern in a 16 x 8 size being shipped out. Can someone answer the following:

1. Do stock lug nuts fit?
2. I would like to get black lug nuts. Specifically, what "size" and "brand" black lug nuts should I get?

Thanks in advance

I just got done installing five Pro Comp 7069's so I am happy to be able to help you out. I installed the black Gorilla locking lug nuts that I ordered from 4wheelparts through their representative Bryan (Bustabiz) who is a member here.

Since I did my spare are well, I needed 23 lug nuts so Bryan hooked me up with the 20 count 1/2" Small Diameter Black Lug, item #21183BC and then he got me three more individual lugs, 1/2" Small Diameter Acorn, item #21188BC.

These are the lug nuts where EVERY lug nut is a locker requiring a special socket and not just one per wheel. I like that much better and they look awesome! You probably can't see them in my lousy picture, but they compliment our black Pro Comps perfectly!! My advice, PM Bryan like I did and he will hook you up and you will have them fast, at an awesome price, and be VERY satisfied. I never thought lug nuts would excite me, but these do!!

Any other questions? Feel free to ask and congrats on the new rims!

I also just put these on my 07 JK this past week. I used my stock lugs until my black Gorilla lug nuts came in and they worked fine. 1/2-20
I really like how they look.

Perfect. Thanks guys. Just out of curiosity, why the Gorilla lug nuts instead of the Pro Comp lug nuts?

I went with Gorilla just because that's what Discount Tire got for me.
They are more glossy than my rims, but they look fine.

Stock lugs work fine but the tool that comes with the Jeep will not work. I keep a deep socket and breaker bar with me just in case.
