granto,
2.5 Litre model. Solution yes, just depends what is going in. Best to not mix materials. Rusted steel will leave a mess on chrome lugs if in same batch.

Michael,
Great tips!! I as well suspend with wire. Thin copper wire is easy to make whatever fixture needed. Only get a vibrating tumbler. Rotating ones will rub parts together. I have a small one and the 5lb Harbor Freight. The HF works ok. Gotta isolate the base on foam pads or something. Will rattle itself death otherwise. Crushed walnut shells and I put polish on lugs before they go in. Amazing results. Will need a set of small tapered brushes to get the shells out of lug thread points. Would like to convert a washing machine for for rims :-).
I don't put lug tension rod inserts or the screws to hold lugs. UltraSonic works better for those.
