I give them 5 stars overall and highly recommend them to those needing some. I really can't say they will never rust but so far my set has held up great to all elements except...snow. (Note: its best to use common dish detergent safe for hands on any chrome including these Acorn Wheel Locks.) Since its been around for years and those auto wash, wheel, brake/grease cleaners haven't. Those cleaners may eat into the clear coat on any chrome. This is the only set of wheels I've never used those chemical or auto wash cleaners on but they still look great including the Gorilla Locks. I know its a pain in the butt to have to dump the auto wash water out and rinse all suds as best as you can. Before, refilling a gallon of water with hand/dish soap into your bucket but after my experience with chemicals this has worked best for me. I do regular washes though usually every 2-3 weeks...so my rims never get a crap load of brake dust on them.
With all this said none of this really matters for me since my lug nuts are covered by a plastic chrome hexagon key cap. But, this review wasn't for me the consumer its for those looking to buy some or replace there rusting chrome plated set. For them I hope they find this detail review helpful. If, the price is right buy them 2 years from now you won't be disappointed.
Finally, for those of you who place your keys in your vehicle and just leave them there which isn't very smart. If, the thief doesn't already have a universal key set it isn't very hard to pop a window with a spark plug and reach into the center console or glove box to get your key. I only place my key in my vehicle when I'm getting a tire balance and rotate. It's really the only way to be safe and I can always call someone I trust for key if stranded with flat tire.
