Rounded Nuts


Paddy78

Recommended Posts

I recently bought some spacers (Used Eibach from a forum member) but have run into a problem when having them fitted. The Wheel Specialist (Leeds) who are also refurb'ing my alloys have said that they can’t / won’t fit the spacers as some of the nuts have been rounded.

 

I hear that Eibach replacements are about £5 a piece, so does anyone know where I can get some for a lot less than this? Also, does anyone know the thread size/pitch etc. so that I can try to source some myself.

 

Your help, as always, is much appreciated! :thumbs:

Thanks Guys,

 

I think I'll replace the lot as at least half are rounded... though £50 would mean that I pretty much should have bought new spacers! :rant:

 

I found these, although there are no prices. I assume the 12x1.25 would be ok?

I'll also check eBay when I get home.

 

Tom, if I end up ordering some I'll give you a shout as it should save you some P&P if you only need a few.

That'd be great. I should know how many I need on Thursday as I'm taking them off then to change my wheels over.
