Spiked Lug Nuts

Does anyone know of a company that makes spiked lug nuts that are steel, non aluminum, for factory wheels?

I have never seen an aluminum lug nut. And I work in the automotive industry.

Oooof!!!! There are some things that are just wrong. Those being one of them. We've installed many spiked lug nuts, all of them steel.

Some stick on portholes on the front and rear fenders- would go great with those. Those are steel lugs with a screw on aluminum cap. Not even a gokart would have aluminum lug nuts.

Back in the 50's/60's things like that were common, lots of wheels using spinners and etc. BUT they have been known to catch a ladies dress in the downtown area, the lawsuit will cost you more than the spikes do!!!
