Cheap, generic tuner lug nuts

Are cheap no name tuner lug nuts poorly made enough to contribute to stripped studs? Would name brands like McGard and Gorilla make a difference in terms of precision?

Everyone here is screaming McGard/Gorilla. What I want to know is what kind of lug nuts we have? Are they round tapered?

I got some Kryugens (cheap tuner I guess) lightweight and 7 sided (for theft protection). Have had them on and off 4 times for rotations. I dont use my air gun though and always torque to 78ft lb. No problems and they look good.
