Black lug nuts that don't rust when exposed to road salt?

[Maverick123]

Does anyone have experience with black lug nuts (standard hex, not "tuner" style) for winter use that don't rust after exposure to road salt?

I've had chrome lug nuts that survived 7-8 winters with minimal rusting, but the black lug nuts I have now are rusting pretty badly after only 2 months!

I would say that your only real choice, with a lifetime guarantee, is the McGard #64074. A LOT of people will say their offshore-made ones will not rust, but there's no guarantee to support that.

I've had these for 3 winters now, no rust. I like the extra length also.

I am considering these covers from Amazon for my snow tires. If your lug nuts are 1" deep they might be a simple solution.

Wow! $61.74 before tax and shipping for 4 lug nuts! That's about $370 to your door for a full set! For that price, I expect a happy ending!

I can hear the tire store technician cursing you right now when he tries to put an impact socket on these!
