Wheel nuts

Post by Daz »

OK as a few of you would have seen I have fitted 33" wheels with steel rims to my Pajero. Worzel came round and said I need to get some different wheel nuts for steel rims.

Gonna go to the scrap yard tomorrow, what type of nuts do I need to get :?: only ever had alloys fitted to my cars so I'm not to sure.

Cheers

Steel wheel nuts are 60degree included angle, just make sure they are on with a full nut length.

You want to get them all from the same vehicle of family if you can, saves them being different socket sizes. Toyota have the same thread
M12x1.5 Nissan are M12x1.25
