Hey Allen, I really like the solid stainless steel lug nuts part # AM90070. These are never going to bulge or corrode like the other two piece lug nut options will so you'll never have any issues you'd have to blame on your lug nuts.

Your wheels have steel inserts where the lug nuts contact them so you wouldn't have to worry about issues from dissimilar metals.

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
