To Complain or Not to Complain

RE: To Complain or Not to Complain
I'm pretty sure they are plated with chrome or some other material. So the more you tighten/loosen them, the more plating material you remove, which expose the base metal, which is iron, and it will surely rust. I guess most lug nuts in the market are like that.

I also notice that some lug nuts on my 04 Outlander are getting a light rust color, without ever having them removed. Maybe the protection layer isn't that good.
If it gets worse over time, mayby I'll change the lug nuts. Some tuning shops sell aluminium lug nuts for Mitsubishi's, but which type/dimension do I need?
Cheers
