OEM lugs for 2007?

[shwiftee]

Hi. I just stripped a lug nut, and went to AutoZone to get a replacement. After 45 mins of confusion, I picked up a 40-pack that my mechanic said didn’t fit the way the OEMs on my car fit.
My lugs also have some sort of bushing, looks like cork or some other type of cushion. I haven’t seen it on any of the new lug nuts I’ve seen.

Where to get these?

If you cannot find original Ford then maybe Dorman has them?

No cushion, just corrosion. The Ford lugnuts are a steel open end lugnut with an aluminum appearance cap over them. I fought with some on my wife's Escape. The aluminum cap was damaged/distorted (probably by a monkey with a pneumatic lug wrench...oughta be a law!) and loose. The lug socket would not go on. I had to drill a hole in the center and peel the cap off to get to the steel lugnut.
Should be a pretty common lugnut to find.

1/2"-20 acorn bulge cone style. Here are the best ones you can buy, no crappy aluminum cap. They take a 3/4" socket instead of 13/16".

Edit: If you click on the black option, they are half the price of the chrome version.
