Rusted wheel bolts

[swl]

Hi,

I'm on onto my 3rd set of wheel bolts for my W203 C180! Has anyone used the Rust resistant bolts as mentioned by someone on this forum:

Are these any good or are there better alternatives other than going back to MB?

Thanks.

I have the RAD bolts and they are fine.

Mind you my MB didn't rust either as they were the older style ones with a separate shiny cap affixed to the head of the bolt.

Never use wheel cleaner as it attacks the finish of the bolts.

And the wheels

I spray mine with Hamerite silver and they keep free of rust

Thank you for both replies. Might give the RAD bolts a try and the wheel finish a miss.

Cheers.
