            So I run Stainless Steel Domed nuts and haven't had any issues.

            However, I am aware that Stainless doesn't like to be tightened or stressed like iron. So you just got to keep an eye out for it,#

            But I've never had any problems,.

                I think it's that they don't stretch like cast iron bolts so you risk damaging the threads.

                As said, never had any problems just giving you as much information as possible.
