iv only got 4 wheel nuts on each front wheel and iv been told by the garage it isnt warrentable :evil: why did my friendly garage have to close... so iv been on the hunt for replacement (if only temporary) but so far all the wheel nuts off the series landy's i know are too big? my s3 LWB spare axel's nuts are too big and the ones i got off a mate's s3 SWB tonight are also too big....

what size are mine and/or what other cars have them?

cheers

Think old british :lol:
They are most likely UNF, not the most common these days :roll:
As I have posted in the past, let me at it with the verniers and a thread pitch gauge and we'll at least know what you need 8)
Cheers,

You could come over here and see if one off my Mini fits. Then I can find out what size they are :mrgreen:
