I agree. I've used them on 3 sets of wheels now: my current once, my old SBC RPF1s, and my old Mag Blue TE37SLs.
All three have zero scratches or chipcs from where the lug nuts seat onto the wheel. I think the harsh winter weather helped contribute as well. Not to mention how many times I've taken wheels on and off this car from events and such.
I'm still curious as to what ideas people have that can help fix this. I've talked to some other friends and they've mentioned drilling into the lug nut, and using a chisel to beat into the lug nut. Both are methods that will supposedly loosen the lug nut off the stud and help make it easier to remove.
