Problem with rusty lugnuts. I want better ones

Over the years of buying chrome lugnuts they all seem to rust and are junk. I think my McGaurds lasted the longest. Does anyone make stainless steel or what do you reccomend?

The current McGards are guaranteed for life. I'd call them about some replacements...

are you using a good lug nut wrench on them? those crappy spare tire wrenches that come stock are terrible. invest in a nice cross-iron wrench, and lube those nuts with some good high temp anti-seaze(copper).
