This is a common issue. Not corrosion damage, but, stripped/crossed/rolled/stretched threads due to careless installation technique. Do you have any photos of the damaged lug bolts/hub threads or wheels? Using a heli-coil for thread repair along with new lug bolts could be possible, but not without seeing the damage.
