Looking to see what others are using for lug nuts.

I've been using Amazon specials for my aftermarket wheels, but they are already rusting. If I don't want to spend $400+ on titanium, what are some good options that will be pretty durable?

Thanks!

Man, I tried looking everywhere and kept running into the same issue. I ended up getting some Amazon ones that supposedly ā€œdon’t rust,ā€ but since I’m not using the car right now, I can’t really attest to that. Paying that much just feels like more of the JDM Type R tax. I hope you can find a good solution! On my wife’s SUV, I have black McGard ones that are still going strong, but I couldn’t find a set for my car maybe I was just looking in the wrong places.

I’ve been using project kics monolith since 2022. I had them on my FK8 and now on my FL5. No rust, but I don’t daily my R.

Tire Rack supplied the nuts for my winter wheel/tire set. After four years of daily, winter driving, on an FK8 and then FL5, they still look new.
I'm pretty sure they're Gorilla.

For OEM Honda type wheels, I recommend the same.
My Kyo-Ei R40 iConix with the floating seats are awesome. They have been working great on my heavy OEM Honda Pilot HPD wheels, and I have a second set for my OEM Honda Modulo Shark Gray Forged 10 spoke wheels.

For my aftermarket MITA Motorsports FKS wheels, I got Kyo-Ei Project Kics Monolith lug nuts.

Rays Formula FN-II lug nuts here as well. They are pretty expensive, and I didn't really want to spend that much on lug nuts, but they're very nice. The 14x1.5 size seems to be a bit of a pain to find closed-end options for, or at least the ability to make them closed-end with the cap screws.
