I bought a set from the local AutoZone today. I just wanted to swap the stock chrome for a black set. These looked smaller. Initial inspection:
I put my caliper across the taper and it was .8 vs the OEM at .9 of the diameter of the bite marks on the lug.
They also weren't as deep as the OEM. Just about an 1/8" shallower. Not sure if that matters, as long as they tighten up before bottoming out.
Long story short, I didn't install them. I'm too paranoid about these small differences.
Any thoughts on where to get a decent set of Black Spline Drive Lug Nuts, without breaking the bank? I don't need a $200 set, clearly Cadillac didn't put that much into the OEM design.
