I need to figure out if my lug nuts / wheels are aluminum or not. I presume the wheels are original. any suggestions for easy tests to do this appreciated.

AFAIK a padded socket is only necessary for aluminum lug nuts.

try a magnet. I have never seen anything but alloy (not aluminum, I
believe) nuts on a 944 though anything is possible.
