I think it's either one or the other. I've never seen both soft inside and out.

The outside is easy. Give it a quick wrap with electrical tape. Heat shrink tubing works well also.

I've used painters tape before, as well.

the lugs themselves shouldnt scratch. most high end lugs have a key that fits like a glove. therefore no chipping or scratches on the corners of the lug nuts.
