All of the "anodized" low end lug nuts that I have seen change color. The Mutegi and Kyokugens (I know the spelling isnt correct) are either true polished metal or powder coated and maintain color. The cheap anodizing changes due to the heat from your breaks and other outer conditions. If you spend the extra $$$ to get Work or Rays they should maintain color, any other anodized lug nuts I wouldn't rely on. Thats my $0.02.
