The Design 911 S/S lugnuts are not one piece - they have the loose "collar" as per the originals.
Can't comment on the pitting as I live in the sub tropics with no snow / ice etc, but if your polished finish is pitting I doubt they are stainless and they are probably a ferrous metal with a chromed finish. The UK weather is probably as bad as Toronto for corrosion but they seem to last OK there....
