Rusty Lugnuts?

As you may have seen in other threads, we are searching for a 'CPO' X5 for my wife. We are looking at an '06 SP, PP, CW, Etc. with 44K miles that appears to be in pretty nice condition. I was curious how common it is to find X5's with rusty lugnuts, and if this is an indication of other corrosion problems to be worried about? Again, I searched, but didn't find anything. Thanks again..

P.S. -- I really hate all the games and lies dealers play/use. Its a nice truck, but they went as far as to tell us (unsolicited) that it has new tires on it, part of their certification process. Except that the tires clearly have a '05 manufactuer date code, are ozone cracked and have signifigant tread wear (I think they are original fitment in fact). What is up with this crap?!?
