No one I know of, the best thing you can do is buy a good 6 point 19mm socket and be careful removing and tightening them.

I did see a socket at the corvette forum that had a nylon insert to help with chrome nuts, and back in the old days they used to sell teflon coated sockets, but they didn't work that well.

I've had a set of black mutegi's <sp> for about two years, and they're pretty good. they haven't been scuffed and I take my wheels off fairly often.

Plastic covers are the answer here. No worries about chipped paint, easily replaceable, cheap.

And they come in fun shapes.
