Stainless wheel nuts?

[SCRover]

Has anyone found a US source for stainless lug nuts for Defender steel wheels?

I have found Wrington, Land Rover Solutions, and Uproar4x4 but they are all in the UK.
(Who is going to be the first to post about rusty nuts??? Go ahead, you know you want to...)

I haven’t seen them offered stateside, I’ve only ever run/recommended SDO’s galvanized/oxide coated ones that never rust

I have 2 sets of SDO and both have rust.

I looked around for a US supplier for SS lug nuts, but while the thread pitch is common, the taper is pretty unique (100 degrees if I remember correctly). I ordered a set of Wrington's and have been very happy with them. The nuts for the steel wheels aren't too bad, but the ones for the alloy wheels are pretty steep.

That’s wild, I’ve never had an issue. I have touched up the black coating every once in a while but never had corrosion start

Black stove paint in the can works great 1x a year to freshen them up

$ for Wrington for alloys is steep, but the quality is tops.

Shipping is what kills it. They are $100 a set but shipping is $75, and you can't double up to split shipping.

Even at that price, it’s worth it imo. Nice trucks deserve the best!

For anyone interested, end of May is the target for availability. Goals: marine-grade, hardened, black appearance, less expensive, cheap shipping.
