    This might be helpful for Gen3 owners who are wanting to get extra wheel nuts or simply looking for a complete set for new/take-off oem alloy rims from a different trim (SR, SR5, Platinum, Pro, ....).

    Oem 2023 far left (silver) uses 21mm socket.
    Oem 2022 center (black) uses 21mm socket. Tried to purchase these - have been replaced with 2023 listed below.
    Oem 2023 far right (black) uses 22mm socket

    No change to thread/pitch or barrel diameter. Toyota part number pt076-0c200-02 (black 2023 part).

    I don't doubt it - my dealer was unaware of the change too. He pulled samples from stock and none (all product code noted - black) were the 21mm. My stock 23 Silver lugs are 21mm and so are the ones I got from my 2022 TRD 18" take offs. I needed six to make up for the ones the original owner kept for their spare and that is what started this conundrum. If you want or need some black 21mm lmk - I have a few I'd sell you as I purchased 20 new 22mm blacks to go with the black locking lugs. Could have gone to ebay or other but no guarantee they would be 21mm and not the new 22mm. Ship sailed so it is all water under the bridge now.

    @ryanwgregg this will help you in your parts thread - or at least see the differences.

    That’s nuts if they changed the size from 21 to 22.

    My 24 came with 21mm size. If I got that part number I would need a 22mm bar huh?

    my Toyota Parts Manager was lost for an explanation - thinks Toyota changed suppliers and they are Sequoia or Lexus standard. They fit and work fine and when the Toyota Dealer put my tires on my TRD OffRoad rims with them they had no issue and did not bitch about having to use a 22mm socket so the techs are aware of it too. I just carry a 22mm with me in my tool box as I had an extra. My original lugs ('23 SR5) were the silver 21mm ones, and my TRD OR rims were new take offs from a 2022 with 21 mm black lugs.

    I’m ordering those lugs nuts since its a lot cheaper than the 21mm ones. I also got one of these to carry in the truck https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BVZ8GT5L

    I use a 1/2" breaker bar (19") along with a 3" extension on the 22mm socket - keeps me from busting my knuckles. 1/2" (120 ft/lb max) torque wrench to set final torque (97 ft/lb).
