My wheel nuts are starting to rust and that's the non locking ones. I'm wondering how thin the alloy paint is on them! I was expecting the wheels to be bubbling but they're fine.
Has anyone had the wheel nuts replaced under warranty?
I thought they were chrome?
Try taking one out and giving it a rub down with some autosol. it may be that they are a bit tarnished as they are so hard to clean.
Sorry I meant chrome.
Thinking back to the spring changing marathon at your house they did take a battering with the compressed air gun s:D :D s:D
Ignoring the new springs and painted calipers etc, I wonder if Mr T will believe me when I say I haven't removed my wheels very often???
I'll try cleaning them properly first.
Funny, I was really impressed with how good the stock bolts were, the aftermarket ones I have for the 17's look like crap if you just take them outside for more than five minutes!

Is that since they have been re-coated with the anthracite paint?
do you have locking nuts for them?

I didn't have the bolts painted, I reckoned that taking them on and off would ruin the finish anyway - had the valve caps done though s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
