E-trailer has chrome plated steel lug nuts.  Don't get stainless steel,  they will not hold the torque.

+1 regarding getting the lug nuts at an auto parts store.

The torque on our 2017 RP179 is also 100 lbs.

I would try an auto parts store, bring one or two of your best lug nuts, they should have the correct size in stock.  If that isn't convenient then a rv outlet should carry them in stock.  Our 177 has torque value of 100 pounds for the lug nuts.  Have had no issues for the 15 years we have owned it going at 100# of torque.

I just replaced the 6 year old tires on my R-Pod with Goodyear Endurance tires, while I had the wheels off I looked at the lug nuts, most of them are cracked, I have tried several places and none of them quite fit the wheels. Where can I get lug nuts that fit and what are the torque values for the nuts, I looked at the sticker on the tongue and it is blank.
Thanks in advance for your help
