I recently purchased the blue aluminum hex nut for my 4x4. Before it got worse or damaged to the point of no return, my wheel hex nut side was almost meshed. I was able to run the original plastic black hex nut and save the old wheels.

Now, I recently purchased hazard wheels and im afraid to use my aluminum hex nut. its seems like the original hex nut are more durable. Any ideas? Has anyone had same issue?
