Lug Nuts Rusting Alot More In Front
Does anyone notice their lug nuts rusting about twice as fast on their front wheels then their rear? Does anyone know where I can get a set of lug nuts for a good price to replace my rusting ones?

Yes, most of the lug rusting on my Porsches start in the front.
I only know that dealer lugs are expensive and that Porsche knows that these lugs are prone to rusting. My dealer will replace them under warranty. After warranty, no go. :cheers: |
blinkwatt, did you look for lug bolts on E-bay? I suspect the fronts rust quicker because they get more brake dust build-up, and that's a contributing factor.

I noticed my lugs were rusting badly. It was a terrible eye sore. I went to walmart and got a can of high temp primer, one can of rustoleum tinned metal paint, roll of 1" masking tape, and small metal wire brush. It was a time consuming project but I was able to clean the inside of my wheels while they were off. The finish is very nice and cost approx. $9 to complete. Compared to the costly expense of a new set.
