Torq 'n Go Lug Nuts - Update

Since installing the Torq 'N Go Lug Nuts, we have traveled over 1200 miles without a problem. These nuts hold their torque. I've purposely checked them every 100 miles or so and they remain torqued at 120 foot-pounds.

I stopped at Dexter when we went through Elkhart so that the engineers could check the installation to see if the nuts were crushing the steel wheels (I have two aluminum wheels on one side and two steel wheels on the other). They had mentioned to me by e-mail that there could be a possibility that since the lug nuts torque so positively, they might "crush" the steel. They inspected my wheels and found no crushing. They sent me off with a "have a good time traveling." Which we will with another worrisome thing off our minds.

Orv, are these holding up as far as looks? No rusting from being nicked during installation? As I'm sure you know that's a common problem with the oem nuts, ours included.
