Marine lube your nuts to make them waterproof - I love that reply, think I'll try to use that line more often.
You could also try some spray lacquer to give them a healthy and complete shine.
Out here in the middle east the nuts stay very dry so little risk of corrosion, but all the sand could be quite abrasive and cause a lot of chaffing and friction. I will check my ones more often but think they are keeping a good finish to them. Not sure if the GCC spec cars have different nuts but I dont have a locking nut, but if someone does try to get a hold of my nuts then the punishment for crimes out here will be a chopped off hand - but as part of the GCC specifications we do get heated front and rear windows, most useful in +50 degrees celcius heats.
