Shiny Nuts

[Coops]

i'm looking at gettin a stud conversion kit, however when i last bought new wheel bolts for the car they lasted 5 minutes shiny then corroded as i think they are zinc coated or alloy or something? what do i need to purchase to stop this lack of shinyness? can i get stainless steel studs and adonised nuts or something? or is stainless too brittle for wheel studs?

any advice much appriciated

cheers

good chrome ones might be your best bet ? like you say I don't think you'd find (or want) stainless studs or nuts

Ive seen jap stuff with titanium anodized wheel nuts

Do you use nasty wheel cleaner fluids? The ones on the T are still almost as new 3+ years on. doesn't really help your problem now but maybe later.

i replaced mine with studs,then bought some nice anodised gold nuts just make sure you use permenant locktite on the studs if you do go that route theres a pic on my profile

thats eaxactly what am after fella, details on where u got it all from? and do they do different colours of the adonised bolts, as in black or silver?

i will find out my old man sourced them for me,im sure the nuts came from the states,to be honest i would just go silver as they mark easily
