are the 61148BCX 1 piece ?

DR
May not be. I have the 61148BCX and it looks to have solid cladding over inner nut.

Here's a link to the Gorilla lugs from a good seller. They are one-piece. It's difficult to tell with the poor part numbering system of Gorilla products whether they are discontinued or have changed numbers or what they are doing. The seller I purchased from isn't advertising them right now, but these look like they are probably the next closest in price and you get a 2-year warranty.

You can also get matching locks as well if that's something you'd like. They are a really close match, unlike the OEM/McGard style.

McGard has always been the best in the business. You have 2 styles to choose from for OEM wheels:
https://shop.mcgard.com/black-cone-...-m14-x-1-5-thread-size-set-of-4-lug-nuts-1201
https://shop.mcgard.com/black-bulge...-m14-x-1-5-thread-size-set-of-4-lug-nuts-1192
Places like Summmit Racing sell these.
No disputing McGard makes a good lug nut. But only the bulge cone is correct for OEM wheels vs. the standard cone. Unfortunately McGard only makes them in black with a 22mm hex, vs. the 21mm OEM size. So you would need to carry an extra lug wrench if you ever planned to change a flat.

Someone sells adapter sockets (i.e. 21mm male to 22mm female) and they are pretty inexpensive. Slips my mind as to where I saw these. They're out there.
Also, as far as I know, if it has a 60° conical seat, it'll work on almost anything, OEM or aftermarket. McGard recommended both styles of nut for OEM wheels.

I just replaced mine with White Knight lug nuts (part # WN-007-B for chrome or WN-007-BK for black). Solid one-piece nuts that are the correct height, unlike the Gorilla and McGard options. Them being about 1/4" too tall was annoying to me and I came across a single post somewhere where someone had mentioned these White Knights. I just wish they were a matte finish like factory, but I can live with chrome.

Awesome, I was searching all around and reading reviews and couldn't really find any good ones that are OE style, amazon has a lot of cheapy brands that don't seem to last. I just ordered a set of these in black.
