chrome lug nut covers

Had a situation the other day on a road trip. Flat tire rt front and we didn't have the tool needed to remove the chrome lug nut covers. Forced to chisel off the caps and then change to spare, very ugly job. Now i am looking for chrome cap covers, don't know the size. Found something on Amazon with the following description:
17MM CHROME WHEEL LUG NUT BOLT COVER CAPS WITH + Removal Tool
Doesn't mention Toyota Tundra, not sure if this size works. Help out there?

 

Can you post a picture of what you have on your wheels (for lug nuts) currently?
Many manufacturers have been using open ended lug nuts with a plastic chrome lug nut cover that is not supposed to come off. Our lugs use a 22mm socket.
If the plastic chrome covers are coming off then you need to just replace the whole lug nut.

Again, can you post a picture of your lugs and what is wrong so we can better understand and get you the help needed?

 

thanks Scuba, truck on the road today, 2mrw i will post photo... btw, the AAA tow that came to the scene tried lug nut on the cover but it just spun without purchase on the lug nut. We called home to our tire guy and he says we need a tool. This is what the tool looks like on Amazon that comes with chrome caps: ,

 

Oh, wow. Okay.
I’ve never seen those on a Toyota.
They’re normally reserved for Volvo’s and VW’s.

 

Here are detail specs of cap cover:

• 【DIMENSIONS】Cap: 22mm x 18mm; Internal diameter: 17mm
• 【Fitment】These caps fit any car wheel 17mm bolts or nut.
• 【For Reference】Fit for Volkswagen Golf MK4, Bora, Passat, Beetle, Lupo, Polo, Alfa, Romeo, Audi, BMW, Fiat, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, MINI, Nissan, Opel, Nissan, Peugeot, Renault, Saab, Seat, Skoda, Suzuki, Vauxhall, VW
• 【Function】Easy to fit.Simply push down onto your bolts for a firm fit.
• 【Package Includes】20X 17mm Nut Cap + 2X Removal Tool

is my lug nut external diameter 17mm? not sure but if so, then this cap with internal diameter should snug down with a push. Not sure what my lug nut is, i will measure 2mrw, but your opinion Scuba or anyone?

 

I honestly don't understand how those could be installed on an OE tundra lug.
07+ Tundras use a 22MM socket to remove the lugs.


So, let me get this straight...
You screwed up the lugs or lug covers on one wheel when you were swapping out to the spare tire.
Now you're looking for replacement lug covers? If you really want lugs that are chrome I would recommend looking at a set of gorilla lugs. They are hardened steel and zinc plated. They will never rust and are considered, in my opinion, the best out there.




I can help you find the right part number for a kit but I would need to see what wheels you have and what your lugs look like now.
Post a picture here when you can.

 

yup, you got it straight, that's the story... thanks for your input, still scratching around for cheap & dirty solution before committing to new lug nuts all around to match... then i yell uncle.

 

i joined this site today and the help is amazing, thnx
