Well I cracked the chrome off one of the lug nuts... using just my 4-way. I would like to get some real lug nuts I don't have to worry about. Where is a good place to buy quality lugs and what thread pattern is the libby?

Also, I hope to get new rim in a few months. probably the Cragar's, unless I find a 16x7 aluminum black d ring wheel I like. Will I need to get new lugs for the steelies, or are they the same?

Any place that sells 1/2-20 conical lugnuts is a good place to get lugnuts,they will be the same for OEM and steels rims.

I've found the best way to stop the chrome cracking off lug nuts is to use
a peice of cloth over the spanner. It only needs to be thin cloth to prevent metal on chrome.
