Arran Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Got a question for guys running the above about wheel nuts on spacers Basically I've got eibach spacers with rays wheels and I want to get some nuts on order for when they are refurbished in the next two weeks. Will be getting the Nissan size of m12x1.25 but not sure what length nuts il need? Il be buying these ones as they are steel http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/wheel-nuts-bolts/performance-wheels-coloured-tuner-style-wheel-nut Trouble is they don't list the length as to whether they are suitable, don't want to use alloy nuts really Anybody shed any light on it? Cheers Arran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattross1313 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Thread high jack sorry mate - im picking up some Rays in a few days and want to get some new nuts for them. Am i right in thinking most after market nuts would be OK? The ones that taper in? I know that some stock alloys/steels have a flat face so a tapered nut is no good. On your will they fit question - not sure, but if theres a good set you could always get the open end type? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the ball or flat type some other manufacturers use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 You do know they are 2.4x the cost of your average silver or black steel wheel nuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
