Awhile back I got 4 33" BFG A/T's mounted on American Racing rims (no holes).

Came with center caps and chrome lugs. In 3 months the lugs rusted and the center caps began. Now they are entirely rusted.

I'm gonna PC the center caps but is it possible to buy Toyota lugs that last aside from OEM or ones from stainless steel?? I am NOT a polish type of guy :lol:

But a few months of wear is useless........

Thanks for any help!

Im in the same boat.Just got a set of Mickey Thompson Classic II on my z71 last fall and they too are starting to rust on the chrome lugs and center caps. Going to look for some stainless lugs and plastic centers,seems like the only way out. Damn road salt anyways!

i had that same prob with mine also, what i did would rub them down with some polish that would remove rust. and after awhile would have to do it all over again. was a pain in the rear, man i miss my toyota loved that truck.

why dont you want oem? Price? maybe you could find some half decent ones at a junkyard? At work when lugs break or whatever we just get ones from napa and so far so good ...
