I usually torque my lug nuts to 80 ft-lbs (bad experience with me throwing them on 81). I think steel will be fine and won't react with anything as the disks themselves are steel. Aluminum might be fine if you're not worried about deformation--though they themselves may or may not react with the metal given the right catalyst (salt water, etc).
