Skip the so called "soft sockets" - i.e. ones sold by Pelican as they all have disclaimer about steel wheel bolts/lug nuts. Which of course most including factory ones are.

Cheaper/easier solution: either plastic-dip your 19mm socket or just wrap/line with electrical tape and renew as needed.

Good luck
