Whatever you do, be sure to torque the wheels correctly or you'll warp the rotors.

Thanks Grizz and eslai: Do you have any products in mind to clean my "lugnuts" and paint them?

FYI once I get driving again the rust on the rotors disappears. Based on my observations rust appears in a matter of minutes depending on conditoins
