locking wheel nuts
« on: March 24, 2008, 12:52:00 »
Iv'e a set of modulars to fit to the disco, but where can i get a set of locking wheel nuts?

and can i use the original nuts for steel wheels? or do they have to have a collar on them like alloys?

Many thanks
Martin

Hi

Use steel wheel nuts.

Not sure about where to get locking steel wheel nuts from.

I sincerely hope they are cheaper than locking wheel nuts for alloys!

Cheers

You can use alloy nuts but they look daft and will probably catch lots of vegitation.  The soft-dash RRC had a steel spare, the Disco steel, as a cost-saving (cheap b*******s).
