I went to O'Reilly's to buy some locking lug nuts for my 2005 Tacoma. The Professional Parts Rep (per the shirt) asked me a question I wasn't expecting. I was asked, "are these for front or rear?" In my 60 years of playing with cars I've never encountered a case where the lug nuts were different, front to rear, on an OEM vehicle. Are there cases where a vehicle comes from the factory with different lug nuts front and rear? I plead ignorance here.
