Lug NutZ

Ok, I bought some new wheels and tires and lug nuts last year, the chrome is already wearing off of my lug nutz and they are rusting, who has had good luck with their lug nuts and not having the chrome wear off? Anyone try stainless ones? What brand and style are you using and what has been your experience? Ive thought about going to black ones or blasting mine and dipping them in POR. Thoughts?

If you never use a impact gun to put on and remove the lugs will also help them last longer....

All the cheap ones chip and rust quick.
