Chrome lug nut Solid for Airstream wheels

I have searched the forums for replacement lug nut suggestions and there are many references to McGard, Gorilla and others...

I found these on the Airstream Supply website:

http://airstreamsupply.com/Chrome-lu...arch=lug%20nut

Chrome, solid and advertised as OEM. Not worried about price, but they are not expensive.

Has anybody tried/use these?

not a bad price and check this out on amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/WheelGuard-Bu...uts+1%2F2+x+20

if you have 6 per wheel you need to get 4 more.

I have a 2014 25 ft. Do you know if airstream fixed this lug nut issue in later models or do I need to replace these?

if they are the two piece one change them out before they become a issue. Not sure if or when they will change to a real lug nut.
