Default Where to buy lug nuts?

Any clue where to buy lugnuts that arent going to rust in a year? Just stripped out my wheel locks so want to replace them with normal lugs?
Trip to autozone for there $4 ones http://www.autozone.com/autozone/par..._349149_18788_

or hit ebay and get all 20 since the chrome is starting to dull on the oem.

Any lug nut out there will have it's longetivity influenced by how often you remove your wheels and whether or not you use an impact gun.

I've had luck with Gorilla brand lugnuts however. That company puts out quality lug nuts with quality coatings.

Best of luck.

I did the same thing as you did, ripped off my wheel locks. And I just replaced them with like the $6 lugs from autozone, I just walked in and they had 4 in stock for me, i've had them for a quite a long time now, and I do not think they are going to go bad on me.

But if for some reason they do, autozone has a pretty good return/exchange policy anyways so I'm not too worried.
