Race Lug nuts rust / wheel stud conversion

Dif-one · 07-28-2022, 02:52 PM

What’s up everyone. For those who did a wheel stud conversion with Kies Motorsports kit, did y’all eventually get a lot of rusting? Unfortunately it rains a lot here and Florida and my black race stuff are all rusted. I am either gonna replace with another Kies set or some other lug nut. Does anyone have any recommendations????

i'm in cali and its normal for them to rust after having rain or moisture. nothing to worry about since its the nature of the material

It's just surface rust. You can take some oil and wipe it down and it'll get the surface rust off + give it a bit of protection.
